Thanks for the new 'Word Search,' br bear. For once, I was the first one in! I was only 7 years old when Elvis burst upon the world scene, shocking Ed Sullivan so much that the (black and white) TV cameras in his studio were forbidden to drop down below his waist! But he had such a pure and beautiful voice when he sang ballads.

Katy, the Blue Mountains National Park is right across the street from me. I can see into the bush from where I'm typing. So we really, really, really want some more rain here!

Thanks for the 'cleaning eyes' feedback, matina! Cosmo is having his nap now, so I won't wake him up at present.

Imagine you might be going to bed soon, Ice.

Clouds are rolling in and it looks like we might have a thunderstorm . . . just hope for lots of rain with it.

But I have to go out shopping, so will be away for a while . . .

@Pjm: Thanks! Kangaroos have very long feet. Is it unusual for the baby kangaroo to have such long ones?

Good morning to matina and Alessa and also Katy . . . with a photo of an animal that's not exactly 'native' but who was born here . . .



As Katy mentions, it's getting warm in these parts, although it's always milder up in the mountains at 960 metres, which is where I"m sitting.

Cosmo just woke up now, and is waiting for brunch. He was very tired earlier this morning.

Wonder if Stretton and booktopia and br bear and Ice are around . . .

Super cute kitty! I love Persians.

Hi guys

[br195]

Evening all

@pj.... oh to be a cat.... that's the life

[pjmpjm]

So true, br bear . . . he's having his brunch now! And after that . . . a nice nap. (I leave the a/c on low for him. Don't want him to be uncomfortable.)

liza . . . I have only three Persians now . . . used to have more . . .

Hey Br

Is that Rishi, Pjm? Have you been to Rishikesh btw? It's a beautiful place. I visited it a couple of years back.

[pjmpjm]

That's Cosmo, liza. Here's a photo of Rishikesh (R) with her sister Sunnya . . .



I spent a lot of time in India, and traveled around a lot, but unfortunately never made it to Rishikesh.
