Now I will have to wash my face.
Peggy and I came on this overgrown kitty washing his face in Chobe National Park, Botswana on our African safari in October and couldn’t resist using him in our Christmas Card this year. He could have very well been saying “I can’t believe it’s already Christmas!” or “Yikes! Where did 2023 go?” Anyway, here’s Leo the Lion for your enjoyment. Peggy and I want to wish each of you and your families a great Holiday and a happy and healthy New Year. (Back to elephants next week.)
Wandering through Time and Place 
That’s a wonderful photo that begs for captions. When I saw it, I immediately thought “Oh! Why did I drink so much last night?” Several others also come to mind.
Yes, quite appropriate for New Years Day! Or I might say the New Year’s Days of yesteryear. ๐ It’s been a while since I’ve had a hangover! A glass of wine worked quite well on New Year’s Eve. Happy New Year!

Great photo! I have to agree with the above commenterโs caption. Happy holidays to you and Peggy!
Thanks, Diana. And here’s to many hand stands in the coming year! Happy trails. -Curt
Happy Holidays to you and Peggy!
Many thanks. And a Happy New year to you!
Happy New Year to you and your beloved too!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Does the kitty have a name?
Cat? ๐ Our best to you and Carol! Happy trails. Curt and Peggy
Happy Christmas from afar.
Hey Peggy. Thanks. And Happy New Year…
Merry Christmas! Thank you for sending joy this holiday and every day of the year through your blog posts. ๐ฆ๐๐๐
Thanks… and Happy New Year. Appreciated. If I can spread a little cheer along the way, I’m pleased. โCurt
Wishing you and yours joy and health and all that good stuff! ๐
Lots of good stuff, and back at you, kiddo, ๐
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! May your blog endure and entertain for many years to come!
“May your blog endure and entertain for many years to come!” For both of us. Happy New Year.
The very same to you and Peggy, Curt! See you in the new year….
Or “I just ate one of your relatives for a snack. I’m so sorry, stay back. This is fair warning ๐น
hugs and love to you and Peggy, Curtโฃ๏ธ๐
Laughing. I don’t think I would be hanging around taking closeup photos.
You’re no rookie.. smart manโฃ๏ธ
Happy days and the Year ahead Curt and Peggy.
And to you as well, Gerard!
Happy Holidays Curt & Peggy๏ฝฅ๏ฝฅเผถโ๏ธโญ
And a great new year to you Cindy!
Or, “Thank goodness there are twelve days of Christmas, so I can recover a bit and get caught up before they’re over!”
And the odds of catching up are… Hopefully better for you than they are for me, Linda.
Perhaps wondering, like us, what the new year will bring? May yours be a good one, Curt, and let’s hope for some resolutions to stick!
Yep: Wondering and worrying, Dave. My resolution is not to obsess on it.
Happy New Year to you and Peggy! Adorable photo.
Thank’s Lexi. And to you. There will be a few more photos of that lion coming. ๐
I want to cuddle with that kitty! ๐ Happy New Year, Curt!
Wouldn’t advise it, Lauren! Grin… More cute photos of it coming, however.
