Resting ...

Eliot has achieved this state with perfection.

He's on holiday and can sit for hours on the cool quarry tiles simply enjoying the buzzing of the bumble bees and the occasional car that is driven into the cul-de-sac.  He's not bothered by anything and will snooze here happily during the morning.

From time to time he changes position and keeps watch at the gate ... this usually indicates that a cat has dared to make an appearance!

Meanwhile the owner sits writing a blog or looking at the gate and thinks, "that needs a fresh coat of paint."
Perhaps holidays are for this very reason ... much lying around and sleeping and a bit of maintenance when the mood takes you!  Right now ... the beach is calling!  Another gloriously sunny day ... the stuff of "proper" holidays.

Did I hear someone say "beach"?  Okay ... let's go!
