peter cat

peter is a cat that we’ve had for probably about seven years.

i found him meowing in front of a store at a walmart plaza-no houses nearby.

a freeway on one side, a graveyard on the other, and two major streets bound the plaza.

we put up signs, but never found his owners.

i even tried dropping him off at three different shelters around the valley,

but they were all full.

so i suppose it was meant to be.

anyway, all that to say, peter loves water. he loves it from the bowl, the faucet, and more recently,

the sprinkler.

colorado

I visited my friend Stacy who lives in Colorado a couple of weeks ago.

Her church The Refuge is a pretty cool bunch who takes care of each other and the downtrodden.

They even have a community garden on the property where they meet.

summer sunflower

In the community garden where I live, I planted sunflowers.

I’ve never grown them before, but I remember my dziadzi (grandfather in Polish) used to grow them in his garden in Tempe.
