This week the flashback comes from April 2011 and is another from Friday's Favourite Fotos Flashback.
The blog looks a bit different this week because I had a panic at the weekend. My wallpaper had disappeared and I tried different things to get it back to no avail. I ended up getting the original Blogger layout with no right hand side bar or pages and a very narrow screen. With advice from Ann and keep persevering I eventually managed to get a different wallpaper, and more importantly, my pages and sidebar were back. Don't ask me how I did it because I have absolutely no idea. It was luck and perseverance. Anyway, on to this weeks Memories post.
TREE CLIMBERS.
We have always liked climbing and used to climb up through the Leylandii hedge to sit on the top. The hedge is about eight feet high. That is the phone line above our heads.
Flynn: I started at an early age and used to climb the Elderberry tree in the garden. It had lots of branches so was easy to practice on.
That tree isn't there any more but it was fun while it was.
Eric: I don't know why I was accused of hiding in the ivy in the Oak tree to catch the fevvers.
I was only sunbathing. Hehe!
Also Athena, the Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.
I used Landscape at 60%, Soft light at 80%.
For Flynn I used Garden at 50%, then Beauty at 55%.

What good climbers! Those were probably also great places to look out for introoders.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up with Feline Friday!

Those boys sure did know their way around a tree! Glad you got the blog back to "normal" - my Mom says she has trouble with Facebook surprising her with new things she didn't ask for too but so far no blog problems.....paws crossed!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Teddy
Goodness, you boys certainly did start your climbing when you were young! No wonder you were so good at it! 💕
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Ann, perseverance, and luck did the trick for your blog!
Oh my those two were like Tarzan in the jungle. Tree climbing from tree to tree. Good news that you got your blog fixed back up. I hate things that are computer related.
ReplyDeleteEric and Flynn I'm pretty sure you two had some high flying DNAs
ReplyDeletelike from maybe circus cats. I was always stunned at how high you climbed.
Hugs

Flynn looks as if he is only a tiny kitten in the tree photos. Eric is quite cheeky in climbing up right next to the bird feeder. Thanks for the puzzles … always some of my favorite to do.

ReplyDeleteThose boys sure were expert climbers! Such pretty art too. Hey, we all send great big hugs!
ReplyDeleteLook at those adorable tree-boys!
ReplyDeleteLovely art, and thanks for the extra puzzle too.
Having odd things happen to one's blog can be very stressful; it feels so random but one's heart is racing.
Glad that you've found a solution.
You are an awesome climber and are tree royalty
ReplyDeleteClimbing is great. Lovely photos and art!
ReplyDeleteWhat a special flashback of Eric and Flynn. We love that they were such great climbers. :)
ReplyDeleteWe love the lighting in the photo with the two young boys. Sheesh, that's a lot of climbing they did. Not sure this old gal would even try that.
ReplyDeleteWhat champion climbers those two were! Looks like they were good at effurrything!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos of your rascals! Catwork is so realistic, I thought it was the actual pictures. Hope everyone in your home is doing well. Until next time...Jean
ReplyDeleteOh, such lovely climbing pictures of you two, sweet Angels😻We're all born climbers, aren't we😸The artworks are fabulous, they're always are.
