Do you remember the dog that nearly killed the rabbit (despite the denials, I wonder if maybe he did kill that rabbit, because that rabbit sure looked dead to me and I have never seen it since) at the house on the corner where the chicken crossed the road and the rooster got shot?
This morning, as I passed by the same place, I saw this beautiful white cat sitting atop the deck fence, visiting with the two deck goats.
Until today, I never knew about this cat.
It does not matter how long I live and how educated I become, I find that, everyday, I stumble upon something new to learn.

Here I am, on my afternoon coffee break, sitting in my Ford Escape at the drive-through window to the Metro Cafe, which, as you can see, seems to be quite busy these days.
I hope it stays that way, because I am pulling for this little coffee house, built where the dog wash used to be, with cute cars and vans all around.
I am pulling for it because their coffee is ALWAYS good, whereas, at the kiosks that I have traditionally visited, some days the coffee is very good and some days, at the very same place, well... I should say, though, that at even at these places there are certain baristas who always make good coffee, if you show up when they are working.
Plus Carmen, the owner, she always chats and wonders how things are and where is Margie, or, oh, good, Margie has come today and look at your little grandson! Hey! He can't drink coffee! He's so cute!
And this Saturday, they are going to have their grand opening, from noon until 2:00 PM. The mayor is going to come by at 1:00 and cut a ribbon.
So all you readers from far away places like New York City, Israel, Dubai, Nigeria and of course Bangalore and Chennai, go get on a plane right now and head for Anchorage. Call me, and I will pick you up and take you to the grand opening.
You who live here, you can just drive. Or walk. Or ride a bike. You could even skate in.
I'll bet some will.
*Cocoon mode: Until I finish up a big project that I am working on, I am keeping this blog at bare-minimum simple. I anticipate about one month.
