Holidays on, I happily sit to visit Cat of the Day! Just remember to tell PT's friends how we went to the "pampas" last Summer!

It was February, it was all Carnival, but I had promised to Rhay and Kim (in memory) that we would visit the "pampas", this landscape/climate typical of "gaucho" area that exists in Sourthern Brazil and also Argentina.

We went we friends in their nice and comfortable pick up with double cabinet! Ufa! Because it is a long way to the country side heading frontier.

After driving about 7 hours with 3 stops on small villages so Rhay could have some water and pee, sure he had to pee, feeling the movement of the pick up.

We got to the home of friends who have a "hazienda", the big ranch with cattle and a beautiful pampa landscape. Having got there, they waited for us with a big "churrasco", this meat on the stick cooked over chorcoal, that was the most delicious churrasco we ever taste. (Rhay was so pleased he had to eat many little bites and seemed not have enough...)

After a "siesta", we got another pick up to the center of the hazienda, more down at the pampa, where cowboys with leather clothes were dealing with cattle. Then, we went across the plain green landscape with just grass formation, good for the cattle, with some group of trees once in a while in a kind of oasis in the middle of the vast land your eyes would get lost into the horizon...

There a enormous bull whose name was so long with all his prizes, Rhay could not get it! He was so afraid, his back and fur was like a stick up into the direction of the sky. I believed it was a fear reaction when the bull made a big 'muuuuuuuuuuu....". And the cows where all around pleasantly eating grass... And the sky was light blue and some white cute clouds passed once in a while...

I let Rhay out of the box and run freely around, far away from the cattle and bull, and he run so happily after stading still for a hesitant moment...

By the sunsent, we were all very tired... Rhay wanted to sleep and so started to purr, so we come back on the pick up with him sleeping in my arms...

We left after a warm soup made with churrasco slices and legumes that it is say to give strengh during the long nights of the cowboys watching cattle. What a good soup!

The friends of the hazienda gave Rhay a small cowboys hat and to me a red "prenda's" handkirchief , prenda is how they call the woman of the pampa!

The meat of the Brazilian pampa is known as the "green meat" because the cattle only eat grass. This is because it tastes so good!

Rhay got home so tired, he didn't want to eat anything. He just sleeped so much and had an aggitated sleep. I think he remembers the big bull crying out "muuuuuuuu...."!

I believe I fulfilled my promised to Rhay and Kim (in memory) to take them to the pampa! It was a gorgeous day! We all had great fun!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE BIRTH DAY GREETINGS!

I am know it is a late answer, but better now than never!

I am still alive, navegating not because I got sick of computers. But I finished the book.

Now I am navegating a little at a lan house, just to keep in touch, later I will think about putting the machine at work.

The cats are the only ones that are having a great time! Jota, Lulu and Suzie, fuzzied around because a construction bldg put great logs around the windows and they used to skeep to the streets and enjoy the night.

Tibesa died at age of 15,5 years old in a very calm way. She used to come to my chest and sleep there, very calmily.


Rhay is enormous and very funny. He likes to date!!! Now he does not like all his nick names. We have to see what to do!

The cats of the Redencao Park still have Nadyr taking their special dish every morning. Now there are many black cats there, no one understands why. Maybe some misterious thing.

The neigborhood has two cats that I help, and a baby cat. The other two went to the country side with a neighbor.

So, may cats. So long for now!!!!

Thank you very much for remembering me.
