Puddles there, puddles here…
Well, I was inspired by Ernie to find myself a little warm sun puddle myself in this cold-and-getting-colder weather here in, haha, southern Italy. I think anthros have a picture sometimes of any place that has ‘south’ or ‘sunny’in its description to think of that place as tropical palms and soft breezes from a tepid ocean, but no way, Jose.
Mama, for example is from a place (Houston) that was so hot and humid in the summer that everyone wanted out to go anywhere, just not in the mosquito-ridden, damp, boiling summers, but in winter…brrrrrrr. Mama remembers building snow anthros…and long underwear, whatever that is.
It’s like the saying, “The coldest winter I ever spent was the summer in San Francisco” attributed to Mark Twain but he didn’t say it and no one seems to know who did! But that is what’s happening in other cities now.
Still, mama lived in SF, too, and she found the summers were COLD. And the warming of the planet will not improve things…oh, I forgot, there is no global warming.
So do we have to live on an island in the Caribbean to be warm in winter? Oh, lordy, just think about what it would take to GET there, much less move there.
I think it would take a sea-faring type of vehicle.
And you know how I love ships.
OH, NO, is that a SUITCASE?
It’s cold here too LouLou. Hope ya’ll stay warm and toasty. big hugs
Luv ya’

Those sunpuddles look great, Loulou. Since this weekend, ours have disappeared. Looks like we know where they went. 🙂
Well, thank you for mine!
Oh, Loulou – I feel your pain – travel – YUK! We went to Italy for groceries and plants yesterday BUT the weather was beautiful – sunny, no wind! The day before the roads were closed from Menton to just after the Italian border (coast road) because the wind was blowing the sea onto the roads!! SO, ya never know. BUT soon you’ll be back in your garden!! I may be there soon to help you clean up those cherry tomatoes that have fallen onto the ground!! And you can ride in my pousette (in the garden).
Oh, I hope there are tomatoes left!!! If not, I’ll throw a few around from the super…..
Enjoy your sunpuddles.
This whole city is a sun puddle today but I’m a PRISONER, haha.
Oh dear, LouLou – more travels ? Stay calm in your sunpuddles.
Well, not until after Santa, whoever he is.
Uh oh, a suitcase?! Is your momma planning to transport you someone, Loulou? Purr-lease say my house … purr-lease say my house! I purr-omise I would share my cat tree, toys, and Mom’s lap.
Mom got new luggage that showed up by the brown truck man last week. I wonder what she’s planning. Maybe I don’t want to know. Tee hee hee.
I don’t think you want to know, Valentine…and we won’t be going anywhere for 2 weeks, but still….
