Rolling!

 I got my car back!   I'm happy!

I headed to the park, for the first time in a week.

The river level is very very high.  Even the ditch running along the bottom of the dike is full of water.  The dike originally was built to keep the river out of the town.  The park lies between the dike and the river.  When the water gets higher, and it likely will, the overflowing ditch will flood the dog park and join the river by flooding the road at the front of the park.  Then they close the park.  The river encroaches into the park, when its high, from the other side, leaving much of the park cut off but usually high and dry in its center.

Anyhow, most of the cats I saw were up on the high side of ditch, waiting for me in the brush.

A KATA lady and her daughter fed the cats all last week and weekend and spotted the latest dump--a bunny.  He's small and black and tame but won't them get near enough to pick him up, but almost...I saw him tonight and tried, briefly, to catch him, without luck.

Poor little guy.  They took this video.



They will keep trying.

Here's what the river looks like tonight down by the boat ramp inside the park.

    1. I don't mind the work. I realize I go nuts if not working. I am very happy to have my car back. Got a few groceries this evening. Only a few, because I was at the wrong store, the one where the produce looks bad and everything is highly expensive. But I get my one prescript there, so I thought I'd just get a few things, to tide over, like apples and bananas. Man there is sure a price difference between stores.

    Pleased that your car is back and I guess you are satisfied with it. I love the river video.

    1. Yes I am satisfied, lost three constant dash lights on, from this fix, although now another is constantly on.

  3. I'm glad that you have your car back. Getting it fixed was more of an ordeal than it should have been. What will you do with the bunny when you catch it?

    1. The Kata lady and her daughter will take the bunny. They already have a couple bunnies, at least. They may be the ones who catch him or her, as they have established a repore already. But the bunny runs from traps and likely was dumped from a trap.
