Princess was bowing down to her, and we are definitely her servants. Us too, that it worked out. LOLOL Thankfully we haven’t, but she made herself feel at home. The poor thing had one bad dripping eye. Had no one claimed her she’d be to the vet for it and to be fixed, but not our concern now.

Thanks to community group phone chats we discover that Princess was visiting us from a farm a mile away. She’s a year old female who took a road trip from neighbours to the east. They came and picked her up, and Lucy was happy to see her go. Better yet, they also left us some maple syrup from our trees that we let them tap. A win-win for Lucy and us.

We had a bit of Mother’s Day drama here that has slowly percolated since Friday morning. We found this cat sleeping in Lucy’s chair Friday morning. Lucy was away on patrol until Saturday afternoon so no issues, right away. We didn’t feed the newbie and there was water to drink in the puddles. We didn’t know how they’d do with each other, but we saw this late morning today. The black cat was loud with meows when Lucy was further away but got quiet when she got closer. We had what we call a Mexican Stand-off most of the day. At one point I even had peeping eyes looking in.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms here. 🌹🪻🌺🌺🌷🌻

I’m here for the adventure. Safe travels and that was a great gift for your son.

Between 9 and 11. After 11 it was substantially less here.

I hope you can see them. A quick video from our place. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C61TCgsLWzC/?igsh=MTkwbjQzNmRzbzUzYg==

They were all around us, but to the north is where they were more spectacular.

That sucks. They are supposedly visible again tonight. You could kind of see what was going on with your eyes, but if you open up your camera on your phone, that’s when they really became visible. I hope you guys have better luck tonight.

A few photos from here last night. Just had to walk out past the barn lights for the best views. I’ve never seen them like this at home ever. I’ve seen them at our place in Alberta but that is much further north. I thought Hailey’s Comet was amazing but this beat it hands down.

@MancGirl21 thanks for the share. They were amazing last night. Also sending you a warm welcome to the “family” here.

30 years since these teams played each other. one can’t help to be excited. Like how they are using their original warm up song. U2 just brings it as they come on the ice. Oilers pulled out a win last night. I have Edmonton beating Vancouver in my hockey pool. Don’t worry, I also had them winning the Cup again so I could be wrong. 😂

I wonder what our American friends would think of Swiss Chalet? Lisa and I occasionally go there for lunch if running errands and often think the couples there are people having affairs.😂 The rest of the clients are seniors at the noon hour. That chicken looks amazing.

Sounds delicious. Please post pics later.

That looks delicious. What are you making tonight? I'll be over shortly.🤤
