Thank You
Thanks to everyone for the purrs for our lady. She is having her shoulder checked out today to make sure she hasn't done too much damage.
Oh and thanks to the Cat of Nine Tails for reminding the lady to check for a memory card in her camera. There was one and the pics were saved on it, yay!
So she wanted to show just how close she was to these speeding boats. Of course, there is no picture of the boat gone crazy :)

Free Falling
Well, we no longer have a working camera. The clumsy lady servant broke it when she fell at the boat race yesterday. This is the second digital camera she has broken in only a year. Can we trade her in?
Funny story..... it was the next to the last lap of the boat race and the lady was sitting on the seawall at the port, watching the boats fly by at high rates of speed. Well, this boat turns the corner and heads straight for the seawall going over 100mph. Everyone starts to freak out and back away from the sea wall. Well, as the lady was trying to run for her life, she tripped over her dad's friend's lawn chair and ate the pavement in front of everyone....HAHAHA! She fell on her right side and has some bruises and has clicking and weakness in her shoulder, but the worst part is the camera didn't make it. It's dead, like completely. She can't even get the pictures off that she took of the boats. Still not sure if the boat was pulling a stunt or what, but got so scarily close to the sea wall, even the announcers thought they had lost control of the boat. She's not upset about it just a little in the shoulder. She says if she hadn't been sitting so close, she wouldn't have gotten so scared.

A Pirate Looks At 40
Arr, mateys! I am Cap'n Saylor Bonny and I have a "tail" for you, me hearties. Ready? Here goes.......
Thar's a house, not too far from me creek house, called the Hammock House and it was built waaay back in 1709. In fact, it's the oldest house in me town.
What's so special about this house you might ask? Well, me gonna tell ya......it's said to be haunted! What does this have to do with pirates? One word......Blackbeard! The scallywag!
That's right, Blackbeard the Pirate once took up residence in this house after he ran his ship, the "Queen Anne's Revenge," aground in Beaufort Inlet in 1718.

That's right, Blackbeard the Pirate once took up residence in this house after he ran his ship, the "Queen Anne's Revenge," aground in Beaufort Inlet in 1718.There are several legends floating around our town about what actually happened in that house. One story is that Blackbeard arrived to the house with his 18 year old saucy wench and she was not a willing occupant. It's said that Blackbeard got so mad at the lass, he hung her from an oak tree in the backyard before he weighed anchor back into the briny deep. Some say, you can still hear her screams some nights. Shiver me timbers!

Free Bird - Tweet Week
We wanted to participate in Fin's Tweet Week, so here is our contribution. Our lady servant was going to post this on her super boring blog about herself (and not us cats!), but we're glad she didn't have the time (was too lazy) to post it, cause it's perfect for this week!
A few weeks ago the man called the lady down to the garage for some help. When she walked in, this is what she saw. This is the second hummingbird to fly in the garage and not be able to fly back out of the two huge garage door openings.
The silly bird kept flying around, banging it's head on the ceiling.
The last hummer to do this tired out pretty quick, but not this guy! He must have really been hopped up on some serious nectar because he wasn't wearing out anytime soon.
For a good thirty minutes the lady stood in the middle of the garage holding up a hummingbird feeder because that's what had worked the last time.
After a while, the man took over and held up the feeder, but the bird was having none of it. So the man climbs on the back of a truck he had on the car lift, he reached up and grabbed the little bird.
After a few slurps, the hummingbird flew off to a nearby mimosa tree to refuel!

Funky Weekend - Movie Monday
Here is a video depicting how we spent our weekend. Our lady servant bought us a new ladybug crinkle sack, Rambler got one too. It's lots of fun! And Baby Patches was so kind to send us another sample of the Cat-Man-Doo Bonita Flakes. This time we all got to enjoy them! They are more than yummy, they are awesome! The lady saved a little for trapping this week too. We can't wait to order some from Suppliesjust4pets.com!
