Isn't there a northern route up through Nebraska? It beats taking the mine.

Wyoming and Utah. Not the most northern route, so it's prolly OK.

So is this the first violin that Margaret has made that she's trying to sell?

Might she be interested in re-locating to the Great Northwest?

She's just trying out different sleeping options.

Cat sleeping options:

It's her second. She sold the first, is working on a third, and doing a lot of repair work as well, much of it out of the house. She's also helping Dad build one - he's really excited about maybe doing some little projects just for his own enjoyment especially after he retires in a few years.

She says he's a total perfectionist. ;-)

She's talked about potentially talking to other luthiers in time and learning a little from them as well, just to get a feel for different techniques and how different builders aim for different tone. Not sure how serious she is about that or who she has in mind, so we'll see.

Right now she just wants to see Jacinta (the new niece), and wouldn't mind taking the scenic route to get there...

*snicker*

Ya know, I doubt most of those were posed! They do some pretty crazy things...silly critters.

I think the kitty in the sandal is my favorite. ;-)

I defy anyone to show me how to pose a cat for those shots.

Mine do that all the time. Anything on the floor that can be curled up on is a bed even if it is really too small to be actually curled up on.

Ask Empress. I am sure there are pharmaceutical methods.

I'm still a bit perplexed by a cat sleeping in coat hangers.

I'm assuming these are fully-functional cats without any chemical enhancements.

They're unconscious cats - most of them. It's hard to tell the difference between "asleep" and "drugged", in a cat.
