Pirate Selfies, Chapter Two

 Well, we have some more pirate selfies, and some different  AI enhanced ones, too. Petcretary wanted to go outside and make new pirate pictures, but Friday she had appointments and the lawn was in desperate need of getting mowed. It was almost dark when she was done. Saturday we had rain and mist and it was just altogether a dreary day, so no picture taking sessions that day either...not that we minded, BOL!

So here we are, un AI'd...and the AI ones follow:

Here is one of the original pictures that AI changed into pirates:

Then we had yet another rendition of another picture:

Another edit of one of yesterday's images.

This was from the sidewalk image. Looks like Dalton got muddy when he climbed onto the beach, BOL!

That's all folks! Avast! Ahoy! Yohoho!

We think we won't be on any boats or beaches next time we do selfies, BOL!

We hare hopping along with all the other Sunday Selfies at The Cat On my Head! Thanks Kitties Blue for hosting!

Yarghhh! Selfies and Pirates!

 

Yarghhh! Selfies and Pirates!

Yarghhhh! Ahoy! Avast!
Ahoy hearties 'n mateys! We be late again...we need to make th' scribess who scribbles fer us swim th' plank or somethin' like that. Argh! So we growled 'n yowled to her to get a movin' wit' th' selfies 'n scurvy pirate posties...but no, she went astray to swab th' decks elsewhere 'n she went somewhere else to gather in swill 'n provisions... 
So here be our newest scurvy pirate images, along wit' th' selfies that were taken to make th' band 'o pirates' artworks. 
We be fixin' to fire 'tis scribess we own, 'n get a new one...but well, then who gunna swab *our* decks 'n furbish th' larder wit' grub 'n provisions...'n um...who gunna keep our poopdeck 'n head spit shine. Maybe well just gift her a dose 'o our spit 'n vinegar to set her straight...'n to get her to notate our tribe works when we need it. We do have paper 'n pen 'n a jolly typewriter as well...Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!  
Now we be goin' to get back into our galleon 'n sail away...through all th' seven seven seas to find lovely booty 'n lot 'n grub 'n maybe a keg or tow 'o spiced rum, we have depleted our swill 'n spiced grog from al 'tis scurvy pirate partyin'! me but ur heads gunna be full 'o aches 'n maybe worse on th' morrow...so then we gunna once again lay low 'n let th' wench aka th' scribess do her not so piratey thin's. Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!! Yarrgghhh!!

So here be our likenesses for your pleasure...some be flashbackers and some sent to th' place known to th' scurvy peeps as AI, Yohoho!

This is NOT AI, but it is a flashback from about 4 years ago...

Just for fun we are adding our former blog stars as pirates:

Bos-n Minkorossa-Rumpelmeezer

Captain Pipo-Fang Pirate-Master-Cat

Mr Jack Swashbuckler, Barkaneer

Since we put our own images into some art enhancers and AI we are joining the Caturday Art Blog Hop.

In Memory of Kozmo

Kozmo, beloved kitty of Barbara and Alex at Cats-astrophic  Events went missing a while ago, and his Mom searched along with many others to find him, but sadly to no avail. She thinks he may have become prey to a large owl, that has also taken other people's cats. So horrible and sad.

Anyways, we made this memento to honor his memory. Rest peacefully, Kozmo, you will be loved forever.

We will join up with Feline Friday...

New Angels

 We are being wordy on Wednesday, because we have newer angels to let you know about. Some of you actually might already know them, but anyways I made mementos for them.

First is Mirko, a feral cat that Mr John and his coworkers cared for over many years. Mirko was noticed to be very ill, so he was kindly removed from his feral group and warmly loved for a brief time before flying away as a now healthy angel kitty. You can read about it here, and here.

Mirko

Earlier,  near the end of August, Hailey from Sognafaret left her earthly home and went to live at the RB, with her many furblings.

Wordless Wednesday

Time For Hugging On Selfie Sunday

It was a quiet boring week around here...which petcretary says is actually a good thing.Next week ought to be a whirlwind, as *she* has something on the calendar for each day, phew!

We are still enjoying summerlike weather, and with some good rains our grass is gree, thick and juicy, as well as growing like the proverbial weeds. And yes we do have lots of weeds. We wonder what our winter will be like as there are acorns by the hundreds all over our yard, and the squirrels are having fun burying most of them...at least the ones that *she* doesn't see to pick them up. She throws them into the far back woods so the critters can eat or plant them there,

 Today is Hug Your Hound Day, not that they don't deserve hugs every day...(And we are terrier dogs...BOL!)

Anyways here we are, hugs and all.

Hmm...we have a wee photobomber, BOL! (Discovered when I went through all the live images of the  'Live Photo', to find a good one to post...)

We are hoping to see lots of huggables at The Cat On My Head who are our hosts for this fun weekly feature!

Football Season Selfies

 We went to a football 'party' at our local pet shop.

It was kind of a letdown...but we did have fun sniffing all we could reach, and there were lot of peeps in there who gave us pets, yup, even Dalton! And Dogs! OMD, there were so many. Benji arood at some of them...his hello aroo...but we didn't get to play/sniff/greet with them. Would you believe, petcretary turned around and went down a different aisle??! (*She* didn't want to have us change our minds about those other pups and get all growly, or them...)

Anypaws, there were treats available, sadly we didn't get to have any as we do not nibble on anything with wheat...sheesh! Petcretary tossed a football into the hole and we got two bandanas, and two footballs, though the neck gear has advertising on it as well as the footballs...sigh...so then we went into the back room where they were having a kitten adoption event! Some of those kittens hissed us, BOL! Some watched us carefully with bottlebrush tails as if to ask, who/what are those creatures?? BOL! There were kittens in all kinds of colors and markings...all cuter than cute...sorry *she* was holding our leashes tightly, so no pictures of any of them...alas no meezers among them. She wouldn't do that would she?? (She says she would be very tempted, BOL!)

Then we got back in the car, and headed home for better treats than were offered...

And it was a nice day, a bit humid, but the temps were only in the mid to high seventies. Friday it poured buckets in the morning.but Saturday was just cloudy. After we got back home, we woofed the neighbors and their dogs  on both sides, and then we watched petcretary mow the lawn. It was quite thick and tall, from all the rains we've had since the last mowing. 

We hope everyone is OK after all the bad weather that was in various places in the past few days. We only had 'regular' storms, just lots of thunder and lightning, but no terrible winds or hail or tornadoes ar flooding.

Friday, blogger decided to go all wonky and no one could make comments on blogger blogs, but thankfully it seems to have been fixed. If that happens again, we have a word press blog which id a duplicate of this one, so you can comment there, There is a link to it in the sidebar...and at the bottom of this page too.

Here are some selfies we made in our 'football gear'. Yes, we are Wolverine fans,  Go Blue! (University of Michigan) And they won their first preseason game, Whoohoo!

We are sending messages by ear-mail to those other doggies

That pawrty was kind of a letdown...

But we still had fun...

Yes we did!

Even from in the car I am distracted by some big dog out there in the paring lot...

But I can smile, even if I am not looking at you, petcretary...

Hi, Petcretary, can we go back home now?!

We are joining all the other Sunday Selfies at The Cat On My Head.

This And That With Selfies, Too

 Dalton seems to be back to his regular self, at last, for which we are thankful. But he has decided that it is fun to bark at Pawppy without stopping if petcretary is at her work or running errands. Strange, but who knows what goes on in his little doggy brain?! Sheesh! (No more oopsies in the peepee department either, hooray!)

The other day when petcretary was out in the yard, a pretty red dragonfly obliged her with a selfie for today.

Sympetrum vicinum, the Yellow-Legged Meadowhawk

Petcretary got home from her work on Thursday evening, and was able to watch the almost total lunar eclipse.  (96%) She took some pictures with her phone...most didn't turn out too well, but she did get one that isn't too terrible, considering. And she made some pictures of the dogs who of course had to be there too to snoopervise her doings...like why is she leaning on the fence and holding that gadget?

She also captured a Sandhill crane couple trying to snag some snacks. They are around her workplace and come right up to the building, year after year. Free and fun entertainment for the residents there.

Synchronised 'pecking'!

Symmetrical Cranes!

And one of her orchids has put on a display as well as her hoya.

Hoya

Orchid

These selfies and ussies were made in the darkness of about 1215am...the singles of Dalton & Benji were so bad, they were made in to black and white which improved them quite a bit. This ussie wasn't too terrible, so I left it as I had taken it.The light source is tthe porch light.

We missed Rainbow Bridge Day, we don't normally post on that day of the week...

Here is a link to the blog hop of this event: Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day 2026

Here is our post about all our angels from a previous RBDay post.

That post featured Blacky-Bushka, Blacky-Monster, Groucho, Simba, Suki, Toki, Minko and Pipo.

We have joined up with the Kitties Blue at The Cat On my Head, who are the wonderful hosts of The Sunday Selfies Blog-hop.

You may notice that there are two new badges in our sidebar. The Blogosphere got a 'redo' and you can read all about it over HERE.

If you have a blogosphere badge on your page(s), you should change it if you can. Then we will all have the same badge for reference.

The other new badge just lets everyone know that I will make them a memento/memorial when they have a pet who flies off to the Rainbow Bridge.
