Well, I spoke too soon -- Smokey Joe just ain't working for the boy. Stand by while we try out yet another name.

Wake up Mom -- I'm hungy!!!

Hi Gang -- we are spending a couple of weeks in California's central wine country. Our RV park is in Paso Robles so we are within easy driving distance of some great attractions -- San Simion, Morel Bay, and about 100 wineries. The pix are some left over from our visit to cowboy movie land, and of course, a shot of the kids. They really get along fine and Smoky is growing by leaps and bounds. Next stop is S. Cal for Thanksgiving with the grand kids.

OK -- we have finally decided on a name for our boy-cat -- we must have tried 25 names out on him, but none seem to fit after a couple of days. So here it is, we will NOT change it again -- meet SMOKY JOE!!! He really is a terrific guy.
