~~ Friday’s Hunt v.4.05 -- "E" is for ...
Friday Hunt for the week of August 4th:
(1) Starts with E; (2) Drop(s); and (3) Happy
(3) Happy: Happy Cats appear a lot on calendars. This calendar is a Cat Calendar that hangs on the wall between the breakfast room and the kitchen in my BIL's home in Jackson, Tennessee. We were visiting him and his wife for a last weekend until yesterday (Friday evening until Wednesday morning.)
That was all in a loaner car from out dealer as the power steering pump went out in our car. Our loaner was nice, a 2017 Cadillac XTS Stellar Black SUV with only 287 miles when we started. Now it has over 2000.
I'll have a better picture next week or maybe "L" for Loaner week. This picture was taken somewhere in eastern Arkansas of the car's Instrument Cluster. The seed limit was either 70 or 75 mph. I generally drive 'just a bit over.'
(1) Starts with "E": Exoskeleton starts with "E". For some reason I always called these a shell. Well, it is really.
At the lower left in this picture is the shell from a locust who had outgrown his was in need of a new one. My BIL think it belonged to a Katydid, but I wouldn't know.
Click on the picture for a much better view. Click again, it might get bigger still.
(2) Drop(s): Somehow I get the feeling that something dropped in here. Or at least a few Drops did.

Hi, my name is Amber. I am a very pampered cat! I can't wait for 6 PM every night. That is when I get my Fancy Feast! I talk up a storm when it gets around that time(just to remind everyone that I am waiting)! (Reposted from December 12, 2005 -- Link, click here to see the original)
I was looking through my Archives and this one tugged at me. Amber went to Kitty Heaven in 2014. Amber was our daughter, Karen's, cat but we kept her for four years while she and family were in London where Karen worked. Amber is a rescue cat of sorts and lived a Happy life of nineteen years. Note that I said "a life" as she never used nor needed any of her other eight.

Feline Friday -- Alley Cat, a Cat of the Night
.

I think I startled Alley Cat with my camera. She is another Dubrovnik, Croatia, street cat. One of many.
Last week I posted the Dubrovnik cat who lives in the airport terminal (link). This one was out on the streets at night, trying to decide what to do.
She could stay out in the rain and stroll the almost deserted 'Main Street' of the old town city center. The old town is walled and no motorized vehicles are allowed inside.
That makes for a lot of walking as the city area is quite large. We did walk all around the city on the old wall. The wall was built to protect the residents and businesses from unwanted guests.
Now this sister Alley Cat decided to sit out the rain from her perch here, looking down a side street from her dry archway. She wasn't wild at all as the Alley Cat looked in my top picture.
Instead she is a friendly cat who makes her fur shiny and her stomach round by begging food off the street and from the people eating at the outside cafes down the street from our hotel (picture 1) (picture2).
Where did we spend the night? We had a nice Rick Steves recommended hotel, the Villa Ragusa(veview), just inside the wall. Our hotel had five rooms, if you decide to stay make reservations early and ask for the top room called "The Suite." The picture on the left below is Karen's and KP's room. All the essential were there, including the ensuite bathroom.
Oh yes, like the hotel reviewer said, the owner, Pero, did pick us from the airport and bring us back three days later. On the way he told of his city, of his family, and gave us a lot of tips on how to make the most of our short visit. And we nibbled on some of his mother's dried figs with a sampling of local beverages during the rest of his indoctrination at the hotel.
The view of the rest of the city below is beautiful from The Suite. The picture on the right is the view from our room. Mostly we look at the 'house' across the street. But if we hung our head out and looked down, we could see the street below and a lot of orange red roofs around the town. Click on the picture for a better look.
