I want to start by saying thank you to everyone concerned about our welfare during Hurricane Helene. We were lucky and sustained no damage to our home. I reported in my last post that the bridges to the beaches were closed. I thought they needed to inspect the bridges before reopening but I later learned that the Pinellas County beaches were devastated during the hurricane, mostly due to the storm surge. Three days later, they are still closed. Only residents can access the islands. The storm surge didn’t affect us since we are about four miles from the beach.
On to today’s topic. I was looking through old photos and found an envelope with no date but judging by the pictures I can tell they were from late 2010. Some were taken in South Carolina before we moved back to Florida in November. A couple were taken in Florida.
I did not realize I had a film camera at that time. That’s probably why I lost track of them. I should point out the quality is not great. The photos look good on paper, but I found them to be difficult to scan. I had to turn the contrast down on the scanner which produced less than optimal results.
Tigger and Abbey are in the first two photos. We had affectionate cats back then.
Here is Chris looking to squeeze himself between Tigger and Alex.
After returning to Florida, I captured this photo outside our back door.
What do you think of our Angels?

All photos are potentially precious memories ! Thanks for sharing these !
Thank you.
It’s always fun to find old pictures.
It sure is. Great memories.
Glad you are safe. Very sweet photos.
Thanks so much.
Those really are beautiful photos of such wonderful kitties.
Thanks.
Glad you are well. The kitties are adorable
Thank you.
Those found photos are such precious treasures!
Is that a hawk or an osprey?? Sure is carrying a big ‘prize’!
That is an osprey. They are masters at fishing.
What an unexpected surprise those photos are! Great memories.
I have so many photos but still love it when I find some I forgot about.
Rough or smooth, the images bring much delight, and our way to cherish an essence that has now a new form. Great to see cats interact, they are sentient beings and we can not help but admire the simplicity of their lives. Lessons to be learned I think…
Stay well and safe

I always love to watch our cats get along with each other.
Isn’t it great to find “buried treasure” ?! Old photos with memories are always a wonderful find……. Also glad that you all made it through the storm alright – it was devastating for so many.
Hugs, Pam
It sure was. We were lucky again.
Like a time capsule!
Glad to read that you are well; what a horrific storm for so many.
Yes, it was. Thanks.
