Good Morning KJ & ECB! I’ve got lots of cousins, some I’ve never met, some I know from the 1 family reunion on my dad’s side back in the 80s. Grew up with 2 cousins down the street, actually my mom and their dad are cousins. Girl cousin and I were bff’s thru tyke days till about middle school. Both our names start with a J and we loved to trick substitute teachers, Girl Scout leaders, etc, by switching our names! I have a few iconic pics of us. We were Raggedy Ann and Andy for Halloween one year and another pic showed us sporting our brand new Jungle Habitat t-shirts. Boy cousin was the one who married hubby and I. They both live in North Carolina and now it looks like Aunt P and Uncle J are moving there to be closer to them. Mom’s street (she’s known as the Mayor of “F” Ave because she’s lived there the longest) will never be the same. They’re in their late 80s so I understand why kids want them closer though, plus they will be able spend more time with the grandchildren, who will have the chance to get to know their grandparents better than the occasional visit. Downside, wonder if I’ll ever see them again…
ECB, I love hearing about the zoo you visit! If I ever get to J-ville, I’m looking you up and we can all go! Best of luck with your new place. It will be nice to get the cats settled in to their own place too.
We think Comet’s dealing with an elusive mouse. There are lots of places where it can go that a cat can’t get to, but Comet is usually very patient and will camp out where he last saw it and when it’s whiskers take a peek out, POUNCE! I hope the gang didn’t disrupt your place when they visited Dorry, KJ.
