Out traveling the county roads in Price county I came across this old brick house in anotherwise bare field.
Now it was Rollo's turn to become embarrassed.
"But I have nothing for you," he said quietly and bowed his head.
"Silly you! You have already given me two greatest presents I could ever get: your precious friendship and my creativity and therefore I will always cherish and love you. Before I leave, can I hold you?" Manna ventured to ask.
"You not only can. You must", he answered and they embraced each other, while December's silent dusk fell and surrounded them.
THE END

I want to thank to everyone who were patient enough to follow this story- I know it's been quite a marathon, as I started this story over a month ago by accident.
There are also lots of language mistakes all along the way and I'm aware that I started this story in present but at some point I changed it in past tense, which is more natural and fits better. I will change those present- texts to past tense at some point.
Finally-- I want to dedicate this tale to all of us, who by different reasons sometimes loose our inspiration, that shining star of ours which we are meant to follow.
After a year or so in the house, she is relaxing into what most of us think of as a more normal cat. Not as tense or afraid. Mellowing out as an older kitty.
HAPPY FENCED FRIDAY !
At first, I was on the fence about posting this image to Fenced Friday. However, I decided it was okay to post the evidence of a fence-to-be: i.e. a Future-Tense Fence. We all anxiously await the decision of the Group Administrators of both Fences and Fenced Friday.
Think about the logic.
In fence construction, it makes perfect sense to install the gate first, and then add the fence. Fence sections and post locations can be varied relatively easily as needed; serious, sturdy gates like this one -- not so much.
This gate-first construction approach does create a nicely surreal image to photograph, if your timing is right (or lucky, like mine).
I am sure that if I go back in a week or so, the fence will be in place and there will be nothing special to photograph. I am glad I could carpe diem.

One morning, I watched some ducks and coots in the distance. They came closer, and the one you see in my photo started to dive. So, I waited tensely with my finger on the shutter button, not to miss the moment when it reappears on the surface. And I got it.

From the first time I visited the black grouse (Lyrurus tetrix) lek in April, while I had five male black grouses outside the tent.
They often just stood there looking at each other like this, in between all their noise and fights.

This is my Sunday planning session. Who needs packed lunches on which days, which extra things will be needed. Usually I can only think one week ahead but this week I am also planning Christmas dinner so I've got the recipe books and magazines out for that.
My macro lens is also on the table because that is coming with me flower hunting this afternoon.
The roses are from the garden. I think they must be the last of the rose harvest this year. Even this seems ridiculously late.
I haven't planned for 2018 yet. That is too far ahead and my diary doesn't go that far.
The feral cats in the colony by the lake are bound to their dens due to the deep snow. The winds blowing snow off the ice covered lake change the landscape by the day and deepen the snowpack and drifts on the lee of the boulder field. They manage to peer out of openings between the boulders and seem to be able to travel in tunnels under the boulders for short distances. This girl perched just outside her den to see who is visiting the park is located right near a food cache. I am concerned about a few of the others because I haven't seen them for several days. After the last snowstorm a drift covered the food tray but I stopped by the next day and put down more food so although they're trapped and unable to roam about most of them are getting enough calories to survive the bitter cold. If there is a warmup and another freeze they will be able to walk on the icy crust that forms on the surface of the snowpack.
I realized this morning that for a long time I lived, for the most part, in my own head. I didn't experience anything fully. What I remember from that period of my life is not what I did, but instead what I was remembering and trying to relive from my past.
But now, finally, I'm a participant in my own destiny.
Thank god. And so what if I wasted my 20's? My 30's are a lot better.
