More love...
http://www.links2love.com/love_lyrics_438.htm Another one I can't resist... Placido Domingo and John Denver... (who knew?) Perhaps love is like a resting place, a shelter from the storm. It exists to give you comfort, it is there to keep you warm. And in those times of trouble, when you are most...

Cat Tails, Spokane, WA
It's a big cat haven, and some of the cats here are also working cats-- you may have seen some of them before: One of Cat Tails tigers was in an arena scene in the film GLADIATOR. My daughter Marika, as I tell in The Ciel Show blog, has a life-long interest in big cats, and took a work/study zoo...
