The Adventures of Periwinkle and Stinky

 

Periwinkle was crossing her paws that today's Adventure would turn out as planned.  She didn't know if it would but knew that any time she and Stinky were together was purrfect!  The Teleportation Tunnel started to shake and, with the usual WOOSH, out popped Stinky.  They spent time whisker kissing, paw patting and catching up on the previous week.  Stinky said "wow, it really is a lot colder than the last time I was here."  Periwinkle agreed and said she hoped that would mean their Adventure would go as planned.  Stinky caught on right away and said, "We're going to see manatees, aren't we?"  Periwinkle said she had her paws crossed but, so far, there didn't seem to be any.  They decided to go look anyway and jumped into Periwinkle's Mom's car for the short ride.

As soon as they arrived at the viewing spot, they knew there were no manatees.  They were greeted by this lone bird (sorry Tabbies) who told them the manatees had not arrived.

They were disappointed but decided to spend some time in the area.  Of course, Stinky had to take a picture with this sign...

Fortunately, there were no Alligators hanging around.  Neither tabby wanted to be some gator's lunch!

They did notice that the water level was low and wondered if that was why there were no manatees.

They stopped to visit with this kitty that they remembered from the previous visits.

Periwinkle suggested that, since they couldn't see any live manatees, they return to her house and watch some online.  Stinky agreed and they headed back to her house.  Periwinkle's Mom helped them set up the laptop and they spent some time watching videos.

They watched a video about the Florida Manatee...

And they watched a live cam of manatees...

 

Periwinkle printed out some manatee coloring pages and they spent some time coloring together.

When they finished they were both hungry so they had a quick snack...

Stinky visited with Periwinkle's fursibs and her Mom and they spent some time snuggling, whisker kissing and paw patting before it was time for him to return home.  Periwinkle promised she would keep watching for the manatees and would let him know if/when they returned. 

Stinky entered the Teleportation Tunnel and, with a WOOSH and one last whisker kiss, Stinky was on his way home.  Periwinkle found a sun puddle and napped while dreaming about her handsome fiance.

Monday Sparks

We want you all to know how much we appreciate you!!

 Even though McGuffy's reader is taking a break, we are continuing our Monday Sparks posts!  From the original Sparks posts:

Welcome to Sparks. Many years ago, it was my intent to post an inspirational thought each Monday. It would be my weekly meditation, and perhaps feed other people's spirit as well. Life got busy, and this fell by the wayside. Now, I feel a strong need to bring this feature back. 
The negative energy in the world has become thick and oppressive. Social media has become a part of this dark, negative storm. There is an obvious universal need for more positive energy and peace. And, we can all be part of this affirmative change. 
I believe we are meant to be lights in this world. If we allow our light to shine, we can see where we are going. It is then that we can begin to truly see each other clearly. Together, we can light up the entire world!
I hope you will join us. Please link up a positive quote, thought, poem, or verse. The badge and code can be found in my sidebar. Add the badge to your post to invite others. The more, the merrier. I welcome your thoughts. Peace.

Wordy Wednesday - Our Secret Paw

 Our Secret Paw this year was Mudpie.  She sure knows how to shop and sent us and our Mom some pawsome gifts.  Our little collage doesn't do them justice.  Reesie also says thank you for the box!

Mudpie, we loved all of our gifts.  Mom was amazed that your Mom found a chocolate bar with a cat on it!!!  We also want to thank BJ Bangs for organizing this fun event that we look forward to every year!
