We had a late start to spring in my area and now everything is taking off at once! I need to get my garden in soon. I'm getting tired of keeping all my tomato pots watered.
I'm having a bit of a problem with my two new Bengal girls wanting to chase one of my other cats. She was the leader of the pack before the new additions, so I don't know if she gave them attitude or what, but now she runs from them and they, of course, give chase. She has "safe" spots through-out the house where they don't bother her but to get to them is the problem.

Enjoy your trip, Sheila...it sounds wonderful! I went backpacking in Alaska in the summer and it was great. I loved all the daylight!!
