Look who came to visit..........isn't she cute?  I have no clue who this pretty calico belongs to, but I've seen her in the neighborhood.  Sometimes jumping my fence, sometimes out front in my driveway......but this time, she decided to jump on top of our screened lanai area! 

We figured out she must have scooted up the tree beside the screened area and settled herself quite nicely up there.

I was in here working and Ray came in and said, "you have to come see this."  As you can tell, she's not in the least frightened and even allowed me to snap her photo.  And you have to realize that down below......we have Duncan and Brie barking up at her and 3 cats staring at her wondering what on earth she's doing up there.  She sure is laid back and after about 15 minutes, she scooted back down the tree, hopped the fence and was gone. 

So do you live in area where you're getting blasted with the frigid cold?  I have to say, it's been a mighty nasty winter across the country.  Even here in Cedar Key, the past few mornings have only been in the 20's and not much above 50 during the day.  No snow though, so I'm not complaining.

I started reading The Heretic's Daughter the other day and about 80 pages into it, I'm a bit disappointed.  I'm originally from Salem, the story deals with the witch trials of the 1600's and it's fiction, so I thought I'd like it.  But so far it seems to be dragging.  I'm hoping it'll pick up.  Anybody here read it?

And if anybody has some good book suggestions for me, please leave a comment.  I've decided to start utilizing my library card more (rather than Amazon purchases) and we have a great library here on Cedar Key.....plus, you're always bound to bump into somebody there and can do a bit of socializing.

Have a good weekend, if you're in a part of the country that's freezing, stay warm and I'll see you here next time................
