February, cats and drone

ah it seems like so long
since i posted, but today
a cold but sunny Friday morning in San Diego
some February picts and today's drone
yes, while Herr Gato hides
i listen to this band, Swans, drone music
not for everyone, that a friend sent
hoping the headache (and the office) will melt away

'Nobody will find me here' ~Herr Gato

'Nobody will find me here, either' ~Herr Gato

Monterey pine goes to Alpine

my little Christmas tree (a potted Monterey pine)
has been living in the patio for the last couple of weeks
since I know it won't thrive living in a pot
today I am giving it to a friend
his parents live in Alpine, California (San Diego County)
so he won't be very far...
and there they will plant it

farewell my dear tree friend
I will miss you!
but you will surely thrive living in the Alpine woods!

this morning in the patio, he's already bigger!
