Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This flashback comes from September 2010 and is called:

Climbing Trees.

Flynn: I am a good tree climber and I love to climb all trees. This is an old thorn tree and a lot of the branches are dead so I have to be careful. Eric is not a good tree climber, he usually watches me from the ground. When he does try to climb, mum says he is so awkward, he's like a camel coming back down.

Eric: It doesn't look so far up that tree now I am standing on the hedge. I wonder if I should try.

This isn't so hard, I think I will keep climbing.

Wow! Look how high I am. It looks dark up there with all the leaves and the ivy. I've had to turn my lasers on so I can see where Iam going.

Hey Flynn! Look at me up here!

This is easy peasy! What do you mean Flynn, I need to go back? A dead branch? Okay I'm coming back.

It's a good job Flynn was watching, that branch could have broken and I would have crashed to the ground.

Flynn: I'm not taking my eyes off Eric until he's back down. I don't want him landing on my head.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week the flashback comes from September 2010 and is called: 
Jungle Cats.
We took mum back to our favourite jungle today. We told her as long as she didn't try to follow us she would be safe from the monsters that live in there.

Eric: I led the way........

then we stood on this old tree trunk where nothing could bite our toes.

It was a good place for listening out for prey.

We weren't sure where we could hear the noise coming from so we looked each way.

I kept guard while Flynn went mousie stalking.

Then when he came back he kept guard while I had a look.

I heard something in here and got ready to pounce, but it got away.

Flynn had a look to see if he could see it.

He couldn't so he came back to where I was waiting.........

and then we made our way home together.

This flashback comes from August 2010 and is called:

In The Barn.

Eric: While we were out for our walk it started to rain so we went in the barn to shelter. I thought I may as well check for any new smells while we were there.

Yup, this is a new one. It's very interesting

In fact it is so interesting that I need to rub my face on it to make it smell right. I would normally pee on it but mum says the horses wouldn't like it on their hay bales.

While I was doing that, Flynn had a baff.

Then it stopped raining so we sat outside the door and Flynn carried on baffing.

Right mum, are you ready to get walking again? The rain shower is all finished now.

Flynn: Yeah, come on mum, I'm ready to go.
So we carried on with our walks around the field and the sun kept shining again.


It was getting near dusk on the way back and mum thought the sunset looked pretty so she took a photo of it.

For Eric I started with Rembrandt at 35%, then added Sparks at 45%.

I am not really happy with Flynn's art, it looks a bit washed out. I should have started again from scratch. I used Leonardo at 40%, then added Smoke at 30%.
