What is tattoo Tuesday about this week?

April 9, 2013

This week is a photo essay on stork tattoos.  I decided to stay away from the baby-storky tattoos and go for those that are more realistic ones.  Some of these may actually be cranes – but, close enough.

I’m still on vacation, so sappy cat blogging this week is following the vacation theme. I spent some time on Key West this week – a spot I have not visited before and liked quite well!

These are some images of the Hemingway cats on Key West, Florida. There are a number of stories about how the cats, many of which are six-toed, came to the island, and how they came to be associated with Ernest Hemingway.

I am traveling this week, so tattoo Tuesday is an interesting interpretation of a map of the world.  I am actually here . . .

A much more tender definition of S & M – this photo is of Sam and Murphy snuggled up together in the corner of the couch.  Sam has his chin on Murphy’s head and you can see their front legs around each other.  Sweet.

I mentioned earlier that I am knitting hats for the newborns at the county hospital.  Here are some of the latest creations being shown by world-class models.

Below, Murphy models a snappy white cloche with a garnet bow embellishment.

This modeling can be an exhausting business.

I am amazed at how calm these guys are during the photo shoot.

Not new, but I think it is funny.  I keep checking Sam’s paws because he is evolving.

Bonus:  Cmdr. Samuel Vimes and his electronic devices.
