Leonardo da Vinci

In the last post I, Sweet William The Scot, played a game of guessing who Lee was going to be for Halloween.

We gave you clues over the weekend.

The clues were

CRYPTOGRAPHY

thirty-three degrees ~ referring to the FREEMASONRY

died OVER 500 YEARS AGO in FRANCE

PYRAMID ~ referring to the glass pyramid at the Louvre.

MYSTERIOUS EXPRESSION ~ reference to the Mona Lisa which he painted.

This is believed to be his self portrait.

This self portait was painted in 1512 using red chalk, when Leonardo da Vinci was 50 and living in France.

We used this picture to create our mask from PAPER MACHE OVER A BALLOON about twenty layers then spraying it with a clear sealer.  Lee is wearing HIS STRANGE HAT AND DARK ROBE WITH PAINT ALL OVER IT AND CARRYING BRUSHES AND A PAINT PALETTE WITH A GREY HAIR WIG.

WE HAVE LOVED READING DAN BROWN'S international blockbusters The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons, The Lost Symbol and now Inferno.

Inferno is out this week at the theater.

Lee's Halloween Party is at her Book Club and she has to dress as a character from a book they have read.

~~~~~~ DRUM ROLL ~~~~~

We have a winner and the winner is

MADI'S DAD

Yes Madi's Dad was playing along and figured out our clues.

Mr Jack Freckles tried really hard and kept guessing after every clue so we are sending him a magnet also.

All the guesses were fun to see.

Pssss ~ We will be back next week with another place in Nati City

Happy Halloween

I got on my Halloween costume.

Can you guess who Lee is going to be for Halloween.

See her mask in the upper left corner behind me.

Make a guess and if you are right I will put your name into my Halloween sack and if I draw your name you will get a three inch Scottie Magnet.

Dory's Backyard is asking us what we do to support rescue. 

I do many things.

Why I, Sweet William The Scot, wish every area of the world had a Scooter. Why do I wish such a thing, well Cats are 45 times more prolific than humans.

Now they have a Marmalade!

Let’s kick cat killing in the gonads, one spay/neuter at a time.

But with this movement well I, Sweet William The Scot, start at the very beginning.

Yep I trap feral cats and send them on the Scooter Mobile for a ride to get them gonad free so less cats in rescue.

It is the Give Them Ten the heart and home of the no-kill movement, Ten exists to create a no-kill nation for cats.

Now here is Marmalade Scooter's girlfriend with a message for you.

Don't forget the Halloween Dance also at Dory's Backyard.  Hopefully I can get myself out of this mess so I can pick up Bella.

Pumpkin Patch

Oh No!

Something ate my pumpkin. 

Why I grew this pumpkin myself.  I watched over it all summer.

Dog Gone It!

Now I, Sweet William The Scot, got to go to the pumpkin patch and pay for a  pumpkin.

Looks like they still have a lot to choose from.

But I got to sneak past that darn scarecrow with his devilish grin.

He wants to charge me a paw and a tail.

Now which one will I pick for my jack-o-lantern.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.

Presidential Cookies Poll Is Here

Yep Buskin Bakery here in Nati has been holding a presidential cookie poll for the past seven elections.  And  amazingly their results are very accurate.  I told you about them four years ago.

Who am I voting for?

Cookies are made with each of the candidates’ faces on them. 

The election cookie poll runs all the way to Election Day. 

The poll is updated every 24 hours, and results are posted online and on Buskin Bakery Facebook page.

Busken’s guarantee is -- “They will leave no cookie crumb uncounted!”.

So you got to go and buy the cookie that represents your candidate.

Okie Dokie Lee went and got my cookies. 

Looks like I have a Democratic Party cookie

and a Republican Party cookie and I have a

COOKIE PARTY COOKIE!

Yep I am voting for the COOKIE PARTY.  Why look at the nice smile of the COOKIE PARTY CANDIDATE.

The Cookie Party candidate wants us to take care of our planet.

Their candidate has only good things to say about kindness and love toward each other.

The Cookie Party candidate represents the best in all of us with a sincere belief that we're all in this together and that each of us needs to see the same open doors and have a safety net to catch us if we fall down.

Pssss ~ Ohio is a swing state and the state usually goes Republican.  This election year for the first time our paper the Cincinnati Enquirer is not backing the Republican candidate "The Enquirer has supported Republicans for president for almost a century " nor is the Columbus Dispatch "the last time it endorsed a Democrat was in 1916".
Political tension is high in Nati with the Tea Party so we are pretty much staying away from where a lot of people will be and not out and about.

Dang 470 calories.  Yep these candidates are weighting us down!
