songbird's crazy world

 Another “your choice” week. How about songs about … September?               

 Alas, poor flip flop … Several years ago I discovered Crocs flip flops.  Unlike most flip flops they actually support your feet. Bought them in every color imaginable. With the demise of the pink ones I’m left with two pair, blue and olive green. Good thing summer is over.   

 I don’t usually participate, but we were at the ballpark, waiting for the gates to open …

  Minute by Minute Welcome to Saturday 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme! Saturday 9: Minute by Minute (1979) Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it  here . 1) It's easier to keep track of the minutes if your timepiece has a second hand. A s you answer these questions, a re you wearing a watch or can you see a clock that has a second hand?  Analogue?  Really?  I live in a digital world, clocks do not have hands … 2) In this song, Michael McDonald admits he knows his girl has lied to him.

 23 years. What can I say that hasn’t already been said? So I’ll just link to two previous posts… My visit to the 9/11 Museum The Park

 Yes, I have a Ring camera and a Ring doorbell, and yes I have been entertained by what my cameras captured: birds, squirrels, a raccoon, a scary spider, the neighbor’s cat. The cat is a ginger and apparently lives across the street, in the house with the big tree.  Whenever he ventures into our yard Shadow goes crazy. The people who live in the house next door to the house with the ginger … well, they also have a cat.  A tuxedo.  I’ve seen the tuxie on the lawn and on the driveway, but that cat doesn’t come across the street,   Or, at least, I haven’t seen him on our side of the street,  Yeah, I know, the cameras are supposed to alert you when someone is at the door, when the mail or a package is delivered, or when someone messes with your house or your cars …but I am enjoying the free show, too. Guess who visited again? Not from the Ring camera, but a nice shot of another visitor

 Recent walk in the park … Trying to figure out who these guys are    This guy was all alone  But I found a flock There were turtles …lots of turtles …more than I’ve ever seen at the lake before … I even saw fish in the water, but they’re hard to photograph     I’m really enjoying these walks.
