An online journal with photos and quotations (Emerson, Thoreau and others); blogging about cats, dogs, assorted wildlife, flowers, plants, food, etc. Although inspired by Thoreau's "Walden," this blog focuses primarily on the feral/domesticated cats and other creatures, visitors and inhabitants, found within Godot's Little Green Acre present-day mountain home, surrounded by trees--but, alas, there is no pond.
