The bay this morning
More mangoes in training
Gumbo limbo excitement
Wild thing blossoms

Yesterday went well at the vet's. CWIM has either a) a hormonal issue or b) a psychological issue. I personally don't see the difference, but according to the good doctor, the hormonal will respond to drugs, unlike the psychological. Hmmmm.
There were a LOT of critters at the vet's yesterday. Big dogs and small dogs, and many cats whose lives were altered forever. One of the dogs was pretty interesting, a Brazilian Mastiff who is a rescued dog from here! Apparently the original owner got in a bit over his head and when the current owner got the dog, she was very mangy and in need of some serious loving attention. Now, she is, as you can see, one very healthy looking, very BIG dog. And still a puppy at a little over a year old. Not the sort of puppy you go up to though...(the link is some interesting reading, if you are curious about this breed). Lesson is...don't take an animal if you don't think you can follow through (same with having a human baby, by the way).

A look at the bay from a different view. Yesterday the wind died, the humidity rose and it was possible to sweat just lifting your glass. Yes, YOUR glass. When a slight breeze came up again it was from the east, or backwards as we say here, and held very little refreshment. But today is, obviously...another day indeed. Enjoy it!

As anyone knows who goes to Susie's Restaurant, there is a large cat population she and Jacinto (and certain staff) take care of there. One responsibility of that (and we are lucky to have a few wonderful people who feed and take care of the strays, Susie and Jacinto among them) is taking them to be spayed and neutered. Yesterday, five got the job done on them. I couldn't decide if it looked like a drug rehab center or a ward of the injured. Drugged out and sore, but no longer adding to our cat population, they'll be fine by today, no doubt.
Jacinto checking out the cats before the doors were opened...
they came stumbling out like fighters after a serious 12 rounds - and went right for the food
(I was going to take photos, but figured the flash was one more shocker they didn't need)

just a question from the peanut gallery. Is CWIM's condition hereditary? :)) sorry, it was too good to pass up.
