A RARE OCCASION

This rare happening, where Gracie voluntarily becomes a lap cat, is documented above. It doesn't occur very often, and when it does, it's certainly on her terms. No amount of coaxing, or calling will make it happen, it just happens when she wants it to. Perhaps, this was my reward for rescuing her from the jungle, when she escaped the motor home last week at Oceana. Whatever the motivation, it's nice to occasionally have a lap cat, unless, as was the case yesterday, it happens at just about the time you're thinking of making a trip to the bathroom. The call to take care of one of life's basic functions becomes secondary, when this goofy cat has decided to grace you with her presence. So, in order to prolong this rarest of occasions, I made every effort to concentrate on the TV, instead of something else. Eventually, this necessary function had to take place, and off the lap she went, only to return sometime in the future, when she thinks it's important. This scene played out after we returned from the Astoria, OR area, where we had lunch with Bob & Jeanette Fulton, at their son Roberts Pizza Pub in Warrenton.
It was fun to share our recent experiences, and catch up on everything. They will be staying in the Astoria area for a couple of months, so we'll be seeing them again before we leave the coast, and when we return to Seaside, after the FMCA Convention in Redmond, OR.
