Six Word Fridays and Willy Nilly Friday Five.

Memes I'm joining today: Six Word Fridays, Willy Nilly Friday Five,



 This first set is both part of (SIX WORD FRIDAYS and WILLY NILLY FRIDAY FIVE)


1.  Fall is one of my favorite seasons and it's just around the corner.  In fact there have already been signs of it showing up with cooler temperatures and the changing colors of the leaves. - This weeks theme word for Six Word Fridays was:  Red
 



     Red glowing brightly against Autumn skies.
 

Catching my breath, Making me sigh.

 

Summer’s soon over, Autumn beauty begins.

2.  We took a short day trip on Saturday last weekend and visited the Tamastslikt Cultural Center.  Sadly they would not allow photography inside the museum but I did get this picture of some Indians inside the lobby.

                                     
                 Grandpa and Coleen hamming it up for the camera.

3.  As we were heading back home we happened to spot something really unusual on the side of the road so hubby turned around and drove back so I could photograph it.


                              A "Shoe Tree" - How many pairs do you see?

4.  Hubby likes to read the arrest reports and such in the paper.  He found this listed in the Police Reports:

"Patio chair seat cushions, packages of cigarettes and several pieces of barbecue chicken were stolen from the 500 block of Edith street on Tuesday."

That must have been a hungry thief!  Funnier yet is who reports stolen pieces of chicken!

 Our neighbors chickens, Bella (L) and Blondie (R) eating seeds & grain in our driveway.

5.  We spotted this lovely little fountain in Weston, OR and I had to take a picture of it.  This is only the top portion but I like how the shot turned out.



Finally an update on Ghost.  He started limping on his paw again a couple of days ago so yesterday we had an appointment for him to see the Vet about his paw.  We made sure to tell them that we were "claiming ownership of Ghost" and that the neighbor had been informed of that. 

They couldn't find anything wrong with his paw other then he had been in a cat fight and he might have a bit of arthritis in his joints. - We had him updated on all his shots, he got medication for tape worms and he's now been neutered!  He's in our basement for a few days while he heals and not happy about it but it's whats best for him.  He's doing great though and while it cost us quite a bit for all that work we feel we did the right thing by him.
This shot was taken of Ghost about a week ago playing with a toy that I have where you shoot that orange disk into the air.

That's it for this week. - Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

  4. Hello Ida, wonderful series of images. I like the all the red leaves and Indian Coleen. And the chickens are cute, one time someone stole a chocolate cream pie from our house along with other items. They must have been hungry. Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!

  6. Great set of pics this week! I love the fountain photo. You are ahead of us for fall color. It has been so dry here, I fear that the fall won't be as spectacular as it should be.

  15. Great shots today. Love all the fall colors. I do like the season but I hate what comes after it.
    That shoe tree is quite interesting. I wonder what the story is behind it.
    That's pretty funny about the police report. Sounds to me like it was kids.
    Hooray for Ghost. Glad you were able to get him all fixed up. :)

  19. Autumn is my favorite season, and your pictures make me sigh, too - in a good way. Beautiful, stunning colors. My Japanese Maple in front of my kitchen window is starting to turn, and usually by Thanksgiving its leaves are a fiery red. The fountain is pretty, that is a good shot! I love how you take care of Ghost, and he's such a beautiful cat.
