Went to the Fonda Fair tonight. They had one normal demolition derby and one farm combine demolition derby. This is the first year they had one of those and it didn't quite go as planned. They ended up with only 2 combines--an International and a John Deere. They had planned on 2 more, but they couldn't get them running. But it was different. It was dark and my camera battery was low, so I didn't get a great pic--and only of the International. That's the one that won, though. The John Deere lost a front wheel and also stopped running.

Combines are big.

Little Girl had 4 nice presents for me when I came home from the fair. She was in labor when I left. I really didn't want to leave her since she has had problems with stillborn kittens in the past. But after threatening to have a kitten on my lap, she seemed determined to keep those kittens inside her as long as possible.

But she has 4 at the moment. Odd little things. One seems to be all black, like she is. THe other 3 seem to be an odd combination of black and white--but with enough white to almost make them look like salt and pepper hair. Strange. One of them has a black and white face. Now...the dad, Meowth, is black and white. I was sure she would have all black kittens like she had last time or black and white ones like Meowth. But I've never seen kittens quite this color. You can't really see them too well in the pic, but they are a strange color. Pretty though. And they look healthy so far *knocks on wood*

I don't think she is going to have any more. 4 is a good number.

Edit: Apparently Little Girl thought 5 was a better number. She just had another one in that unusual black/white/grey color. I've told her that 5 is enough. Will see if she listens to me or not.
