Life around the Quilts

A recent storm in our area. After torrential rain for days and days, many trees were unstable so when the strong winds hit, several trees cracked under the strain. (Fortunately my great oak is very, very well rooted and suffered no harm). We saw this as we drove home from my daughters' school:

Several homes have only had intermittent electricity and repairs are ongoing. Much worse off were some areas in the townships where homes were flooded.

And this be our precious ball of fluff. Cassie is the youngest addition to our very female (and moderately feline) family. She is 4 months in this picture (now 5 months) and a cheeky little delight, full of teeth and claws. We acquired Cassie after Claws (our other black cat) was run over by a car outside our house. I cried buckets, as did my daughter, to whom Claws "belonged". Our older cat, Abby, who is around 3 is totally unimpressed with this cheeky squirt and hisses and boos every time Cassie goes past. Sigh.
