Welcome Kittens & Dawgs!  From the same trip photo shoot I’ve shared pictures from all month, I snapped the gorgeous light on the mountains as the sun began its descent with a near full moon over head.  It was breezy standing at the Graybeard overlook. It reminded me of any time we stood in the same place with far less favorable conditions. Look at the first picture, here, to see what I’m talking about. 😉

I’m joining the  Wednesday Hodgepodge community this morning to answer the following six questions posed by our host, Joyce. This is an excellent way to get to know your fellow blogger and you’re invited to play along.

1. Security or freedom? Can you have both? Explain.  I think you can have both.  You need the freedom to have security and you must have security to have freedom.  I see these two American strong holds as essentials to our way of life.  We shouldn’t give up either.
2. If you could visit any historical American site what would it be? Why? That’s really difficult to narrow to a single site with such our nation’s rich heritage spread across our country’s original thirteen colonies but if I had to pick one I would love to visit our nation’s capital.  We have not been to Washington, DC and we’d love to see the many of the famous landmarks.
3. Free as a bird, free reign, be free of, free enterprise, free trip, walk away scot free, free for all…which ‘free’ phrase can best be applied to your life in recent days or weeks? Explain.  I think the term best describes the way I’m feeling lately is ‘be free of’ constant _____!  I didn’t want to really spell it out but I’m more than aggravated about some circumstances at the moment and I hope it’s resolved before I pull all of my hair out!
4. Something in your frig that’s red? Something in your house that’s white? Something in your view that’s blue? Something in my refrigerator that’s red….fresh strawberries and tomatoes, barbecue sauce, and raspberry preserves.  Something that’s white in my house…all of my appliances. Something that’s blue in my sight…sticky notepad and a blue latex glove.
5. July 27th is National New Jersey Day. Have you ever visited The Garden State? If so where did you go? Are there diners where you live? Have you tried Taylor Pork Roll? Do you like to play Monopoly? Salt water taffy-yay or nay? How do you feel about shopping at the mall? Springsteen, Sinatra, or Bon Jovi-you have to pick one.  We have passed through New Jersey traveling to Maine a few times.  Nope, haven’t had Taylor Pork Rolls.  I used to like playing Monopoly but haven’t played in years.  I love salt water taffy! I don’t like shopping period but on occasion, I like to casually browse the mall shops.  Yikes, I have to pick only one mewsician.  Hmmm, I guess I’d go with Sinatra.  Raise your hand if you know why these add-on questions are appropriate on National NJ Day.   I’m sorry, I don’t have a clue. 
6. Insert your own random thought here.  Nothing comes to mind, so I’ll just share this song I stumbled upon by a newly introduced Australian indie-rock band, The Paper Kites. I hope you enjoy! 😉

 

 

I’m going to take Wednesdays off next month in Blogosphere.  I mentioned at the end of May I planned to scale back. I kept nearly true to my normal blogging routine this month with the exception of few to no Tuesday and Friday posts.  My July schedule includes nothing but mewsic with my mid-month BoTB and Monday’s co-host spot.  Thanks for stopping by and have a good day. Come hit the dance floor with me on Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me!

Cathy
