It's about to begin....

Brothers and Sisters are you ready. Don't the cats look scared. They should be. Tomorrow begins a new month but it’s not like any other month and this year is not like any other year. I’m going to attempt something that has never been done (as far as I know, but I haven’t researched it too hard). I’m going to join NaBloPoMo and that would make me Brindisi’s first member if I can pass THE TEST. First let me explain. This jumble of letters stands for National Blog Posting Month for those of you not keeping up with the times, which is most of you! This exclusive club requires that you blog EVERY DAY in the month of November. This November I’m going to “Just Do It” and I WILL join this elite club that WILL surely rule the world, someday. So EVERY DAY of the coming month I will blog AND I’m going one further and I say that I will have a new, never before seen photo with every entry.
This sounds tough and it may be, but I need a challenge, as this blogging thing is getting too easy. Things may go a little haywire this month. Laundry may not get done. Personal grooming may be overlooked but there will be something new here. Just last night a funny thing happened to me on the way home from work that will make a good story during the up coming month. Also we have a lot of events coming up. I might as well say it. We have my birthday in this month. We have Mama Roots in concert. I will be in Rome for Thanksgiving and who knows where else. So stay tuned as I hope to blog about things you never seen or even thought you would see. It may get personal you may be offended but remember it’s for your entertainment only.
Use as directed. Consult a physician if the condition persists for over a month….
Ci vediamo domani…and dopodomani and dopodopodomani…


Little update. I decided to add this scary photo of Mara for Halloween. You have to go back 3 years on my blog to see when I last carved a pumpkin.

Last Chance?

I know I said summer was over but that doesn’t mean I have to accept it. This weekend I went to the beach one last time, maybe. I’m pretty sure I won’t be going again because the water was frickin’ cold. I WAS TOLD that the water would stay warm into October. Well if you call the water this weekend warm then you must have some Viking blood in you. I think the wind may have mixed things up and took away the warm water. I did go snorkeling anyway and I managed one last good photo of a fish. This fish was a beauty too. Definitely related in the Luna Wrasse you see in Zoos and Aquariums. I don’t know if you can tell how purple and blue the head of this fish is. It was really hard to even get the fish in the frame, let alone get the light right.

Also I haven’t had any photos of Nello and Mara on the blog lately so I tried to get some new shots of them on Sunday.
Nello relaxing all day in his chair!

Mara is that some new game that you and Nello are playing? And wait, I know I didn't teach you play spin the bottle!

The Cats

Mom was asking for a new photo of the cats (they are getting to big to be kittens), so here we have a more recent photo. Mara (the black one) is getting big. This picture is a little strange because Nello is twice the size of Mara but he doesn't look it here.
