Hurricane Creek Park

Sunday Sep 5 Andrew and I went to Hurricane Creek Park to hike. It is a canyon about an hour south of us. One of our favorite parts was the twilight tunnel which is a long and skinny crack in a rock wall that you can walk through. Another neat formation was the natural bridge which I am standing on top of in the picture. It was a nice area which we will have to go back to in the fall when there are waterfalls.

US Space and Rocket Center

Ken and Arlene came to visit Aug 24 and stayed through the weekend. We had a great time together. On Saturday we went to the US Space and Rocket Center where Ken and I rode the space shot which is like the detonator. I wanted to ride it, but then I got really nervous and was regretting my decision. I think I was the only one screaming the whole time we were on the ride. But it was fun! That evening we went to Green Mountain where we walked around the lake.

Lily

We got another cat on August 3, 2010. Andrew and I had seen her listed on the same adoption site that we got Krissy from for months and wanted her but didn't know if it was the right timing. Well after 4 months of checking the web page and thinking about her we decided to get her. They had found her as a kitten almost dead. Her litter was attacked by a wild animal and she had internal and external injuries. She is now completely healed and normal except for her right paw which always sticks out to the side. She is a wonderful cat. She is one year old just like Krissy. She has a very sweet personality. She loves to be petted and kneads pillows. She is very laid back and likes to be near us. Krissy had a hard time adjusting to having another cat in her fortress for a while but she is doing much better now. Her and Lily like to chase eachother around the house. One will hide behind a door or a corner and jump out and chase the other. They also like to play behind doors sticking their paws under them. One of their favorite places to go is out on our screened in porch.
