Thanks Julia for hosting, Join in the fun and share Here
On the kitchen table, finishing up things
12 entire bobbins of thread later....
I have 3 bags and 9 hanging pocket creations
to take to market this weekend
and quite a mess to clean up!!
I had to drive the children to school this morning
I was very cranky they missed the bus we do live
quite a ways out. Picked up my sweet 'littlefoot'
she is not feeling well and her mom has to work
On the drive home, I caught a glimpse of something in
the ditch about to run in front of me. It was low and
blended in with the brown grass of the ditch.
It was a
Cougar
I got slowed down and it looked me right in the
A magnificent wild animal
We call them Mountain Lions here
Sightings are rare. I was stunned and awed by
the sleek beauty as it ran across the road in front of me
No time for photos, they move too quickly
{thanks google image search for the photos}
I feel so lucky to have witnessed this crossing
I just keep thinking how absolutely beautiful it was.
All muscle, sleek sinewy elegance,
the look made my heart pound, it was a challenge
'I am wild and will never be tamed,'
I was thinking but what would it be like to try....
...and then, I was thinking I'll bet that's how my 'Romeo' felt
when he first saw me.....that's right cougar got you Romeo!!

Lol - love this post. He's one lucky fellow, for sure :)
How amazing to see a cougar like that, magnificent creatures - bet that made your day!!
Loved your tidy-ups and bags, did they go well at the market? Hope so after all your hard work. I can never tell how my stuff is going to sell, some markets are better than others.
Yep, the photos of my village are all mine. I bought my DH a REALLY nice camera last year and it's easy to take good pics.
Hugs, LLJ xx
Love what you are working on Pam! Will you show us when you are finished...the hanging pockets look amazing!
What a fantastic creature to see, you are so lucky. Those photos you found are great. Thank you for your visit earlier, are you going to have a go at making the scones? If so, let me know how you get on.
Wow! How cool is that? We only see armadillows, skunks and every once in a while deer- nothing that exciting!
Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comment on my heart. I appreciate it.
Happy to meet another blogger.
Best, Darlene
