Once Again, Its Time For Sunday Selfies!!
But wait, petcretary has not used her camera at all this week...we are not complaining, but she'll have to delve into the archives. She said Saturday was National Kitten day, so we'll let our Angel furblings, Pipo & Minko show off themselves as wee ones.OK?? OK, its settled then!
On to 'business'...LOL!
A couple of Tuesdays ago, petcretary and some fast fingered others got in the doors first at Teddy's Tuesday Teaser.
So she got this badge for being early:
This was the image to tease us, sent in by Mr Frank...Thanks for a great pic, by the way!
This pretty photo is a church that has several names: St. Anthony’s Church, Annunciation of St. Anthony, & Biserica Sfântul Anton are all accepted names BUT the fact is it is a church located in BUCHAREST, ROMANIA and THAT is what we ask for in our Teaser Rules – the name of the city/town in the State (if in USA) or Country (if not in USA) ! We didn’t need the name of the church…..Here’s some more information on this beautiful church if you’re interested provided by our Guest Teaser……….. Church’s website (which includes a virtual tour) St. Anthony’s Church – Old Court (biserica-sfantul-anton.ro) Located in Old Princely Court … Wikipedia page Curtea Veche – Wikipedia
An information page – St. Anthony | Church Churches of Bucharest Wiki | Fandom |
So she got this badge:
I was the FIRST RIGHT GUESSER on the Teaser of June 29, 2021! YAY FOR ME! |
So here's the badge for that:
I was one of only TWO First Commenters on the Teaser post of July 6, 2021! YAY FOR US! |
This Teaser pic fooled everyone, as no one 'got it'! And petcretary was the guest contributor of that teaser!! She loves to send in doozies, LOL!
This was taken on top of ‘Old Baldy’, which is on the Bruce Trail, part of the Niagara Escarpment, in Ontario, not too far from the village of Kimberly. |
Here are some more pics of that special place...that escarpment it LONG.and petcretary has been on it, in many spots...from Niagara Falls to Tobermory...not sure if she's been here herself, it was a pic from a friend:)
Old Baldy |
Another view taken by petcretary's friend. They were hiking there, which is tame considering so many do rock climbing there...yikes! |
She got this badge for her guest contribution:
My Teaser photo was used on the TEASER of July 6, 2021 – AND NOBODY GUESSED IT!!!!!! I FOOLED EVERYONE!!!!! |
In-between all these teasers we had The Fourth of July...which we already had a post for. But during that holiday weekend, there was the annual Field of Flight and Balloon Festival. It had to be cancelled last year, due to covid...but was able to be held this year once again.
Here are a very few highlights from that event, held over five days, though our peeps did not go there for all of them, let alone for the full time of each day. Hah! Too hot, too crowded, etc. But they did enjoy what they saw when the *were* there. Oddly enough though they did fly, no hot air balloons were seen flying in the sky, not at the airport, and around the city either. Sometimes depending on the wind conditions they would fly over our home, but nope, nada..not this year...
They did have an evening where they tethered them and then lit them up: called a Balloonn Illume. Always fun to see.
There was an airshow with many different airplanes and jets, the most notable being the F22 called The Raptor.
It can go straight up...and straight down...then it makes a quick maneuver to go up again:) |
Its sure hard to get good pics of that jet...its so fast, anmd petcretary hasn't got the fanciest of cameras...its only a point and shoot camera...so she was happy she got any half decent images, LOL!
There was lots more going on there, but it would take hours for you to see them all...so...we'll just say it was great!
Of course there was ahuge fireworks display. Petcretary put her camera on a tripod, but mot of the pics she masde of them are not what she would call presentable...
But here are a few:
This cloud formation looks like it wanted to join the fireworks display...a fire breathing dragon!! |
OK, now we are going to join up with the Kitties Blue for the selfies Blog Hop.
Sawyer still has NOT been found, this is so agonizing for them and all of Blogville as well.
Please add your purrs, pawyers and anything else you can think of to get Sawyer back to his home.

ReplyDeletelove those kitten photos! I used to go to the Air Show in Cleveland, was never a big fan because it ALWAYS fell on one of the hottest days of the year lol.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful photos! I just love those two kittens, nothing cuter than those two!
ReplyDeleteSo good to see those kitten photos of my pals. They are reporting that the Bridge is loads of fun and it was so good to see them again. We play almost every day and always see each other in The Hall of Treats. Great work on the Teaser. We were a bit late. Cool that you were the one who sent that Un-guessable Teaser MOL. We are purring for Sawyer
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet memories of your kitties. Those balloons are so pretty especially when they do it at night. We enjoyed seeing your firework photos. It's better than hearing them from home.
ReplyDeletePipo and Minko were adorable kittens! And those balloons are wonderful! We didn’t even know there was a hot balloon festival in Michigan. Petcretary got some great shots of the fireworks too. What kind of camera does she use? The mom needs a new one.
ReplyDeleteAn older model...Think I bought it in 2008 or 9...
DeleteIts a Canon SX40. just a little bit of an advanced point & Shoot camera...nothing fancy. But it is rather bulky. Not good for the pockets!
What a fun post! I've missed being able to stop by! Minko and Pipo were really cute kittens! We are keeping 3 kittens for a rescue this weekend - It's a lotta cuteness, let me tell you! ❤
