OHHH THE HEAT ... a hot summer day

Good morning all you world-weary cats and non-cats.  GTC [George-the-Cat] signing in.


Experiencing a New York summer while clad in a fur coat is not easy ... but to peruse books that bring back memories of the summers of my youth seems to ease the heat.


One such book is "Summer of Love: Art of the Psychedelic Era" which brings back many memories of my years in the Haight-Ashbury section of San Francisco and how that music [which now seems ancient] certainly hit a welcome groove... 


And how could a summer be complete without a viewing of Van Gogh's sunflowers.  Those of us in Peekskill enjoy a daily treat ... We Peekskillians are able to view a spectacular mural created by the collaborative efforts of Sone Tower and Larry D'Amico and their extended team.  Their joint vision has turned a minimalist red brick walk-through area into visual feast.  I recommend any and all visitors include this viewing as they walk through the downtown area.  


I personally don't think any summer is complete without a Van Gogh viewing.  Certainly perks up my summer.


Signing off ... until next time ...


As the summer wanes ... remember to photograph those beautiful late day skies that are changing as the fall approaches.


Take care ... we'll talk soon.  Remember to keep your paws tidy.


... lolling about in my hammock makes my whiskers tingle.  GTC.
