I found this cat yowling unhappily in a tree on one of the tree streets tonight. He’s an intact male with a gray mackerel coat with a white chest and paws. He’s very sweet and friendly. He doesn’t have a collar and has a few small wounds. Is this your cat, or do you know who he belongs to?

At the lower right, you see sort of a green triangle. It’s not something I would expect to see next to the pyramids.
Can anybody guess what it really is?

Is anyone addressing the annoying and endless drone of leaf blowers? Do we live in Vermont to listen to this noise hours on end? Killing the silence of our rural life. I know California has laws regarding them. We should at least have hours of day and limits to how much of this we who live here have to put up with listening to them. Thoughts?
Walking the 1000-year-old pilgrimage trail across northern Spain will be the focus of a presentation at the Putney Library on November 15 at 7:00 pm. The slideshow and discussion will be led by Betsy Bates, Paul LeVasseur, Cicely Carroll, and Bob Lawson.
The Camino is nearly 500 miles long, running from the Pyrenees in France across the northern portion of Spain to Santiago de Compostela. Running from village to village, across farm fields and beside streams and rivers, the path is now walked for many reasons and by many people from many countries.
