We finally gave our kitten a name - Boots- because he has 4 white paws. He is getting stronger and more curious.
We were preparing to entertain friends who were coming over to give us a little going away party. Wouldn't you know it, we had another blackout, just as we were trying to prepare dinner for them. Well they came with dessert and their "torches" (that's what they call flashlights and portable lights) and the party commenced! Fortunately about 1 1/2 hr later the power came back on. It was a joy to get to know all the friends here.
