SOME THINGS AREN'T MEANT TO BE

For several years now I have wanted another cat.  Right before Christmas I saw this cat at an adoption site in a PetSmart.  Her name is Callie! 

She had been rescued by Georgia Homeless Pets

(this is her photo from their website)
 
 Our Charlie has been an 'only' cat for awhile so we decided to foster Callie to see if Charlie would accept another cat....

While Callie was use to being around other cats

and was very relaxed and happy...

Charlie was not!

Reluctantly we decided that Callie was not going to be able to stay with us.  

Charlie is 11 years old and set in his ways and we decided that a change this big and stressful was not a good thing for him.  We love our Charlie and he must come first in our pet decisions. 

It's amazing how fast one can loose their heart to an animal...Callie stole mine long before she came to visit and she will still have a place there forever

I know she is safe and will find her forever home soon.

Goodbye sweet girl! 

Some things just aren't meant to be....

A VISIT TO THE SMOKIES~CLINGMAN'S DOME

Before Thanksgiving we took a trip to The Smokey Mountains.  We watched the sunset at Clingman's Dome and I took these photos.  It was beautiful and cold up there!

Snow here in Georgia and lots of icy roads.  Here is a view from my porch!

It's dusk

a look through the branches

forming lacy patterns in the sky

They hydrangeas once white and full of life have now withered and dried 

to a gentle shades of sepia

Today is the start of a new year and for me the start of a new blog!  I love to take photographs and have neglected doing so this past year in favor of one of my other passions~junking!  This blog is for my photos.  It may only be for me or others may find they enjoy it also. 

As the title says it's 

Viewing My World!
