It is was a beautiful day in Olympia. I got out early, prowled around the capitol in the crisp morning air, then settled in for a nice stretch in the sun on the hood of a car at the reporter house. The sun felt wonderfully warm on my fur as I lay looking up at the sky. Some of my reporter friends walked by and scritched my ears. Life is pretty good.

I hope all of my friends get got to spend a moment stretching in the sun today.

But the rain came again around Noon and now it's overcast again. It's a good time to curl up and take a nap.

Incidentally, I always wonder why humans use the phrase "cat nap" to mean "a very short sleep." I wonder if those humans have ever seen an actual cat napping.
