niagara falls aftermath

remember yesterday - when we left the gang all stuck in barrels going over niagara falls?
you might wonder how that ended..... today you will find out.
it turns out that the first barrel going over which ollie saw from her room had karl and ruis inside!!! yes, it was poor me, karl screaming for help........


it also seems they were the only ones to get their barrel over the falls in one piece....
here are gracie and barney.

asta and stanley don't look much better.

and poor momo and socks were lucky that the maid of mist was close by to rescue them!

and judging by the looks on opus and ollie's faces they won't do this again anytime soon...

but wait - here is another unbroken barrel - and it looks as if minime is ready to go back up and ride the falls all over again!

the crew of the maid of the mist was nice enough to give us all towels to wrap up in so we wouldn't catch cold while we waited for the police....

..who did let us go after we pointed out that while they might have posted this sign it is posted at a point were you really can not see it FROM the falls, right?

Now, what's up pussycats? Knowing how Mica only likes water when it's coming out of a faucet for drink, what made you think your bunch of mostly felines would enjoy going over Niagara Falls?!?! And in wintertime, brrrrrr!

Next time, perhaps a soothing desert retreat, like Palm Springs...(don't be worried about the "springs" part!)

Your pal,

Man I so would not do that. I'm with the Meezer's suggestion--I'd go have lunch with their Mom particularly if she would buy me a ham.

Oh boy what a ride that was - I hope my mom doesn't get too mad about it!

I am glad we got the towels - it was chilly there!

You're all nuts. But we're glad you all survived.

Someone needs to tell Jan that we are not nuts we are kitties and a couple of doggies. Geeeee.
Anyway, what a fun time we all had at the falls. Everything turned out in the end OK, as usual, but not without an adventure thrown in there. It is always fun being together. This trip is going to take me several days to get rested up after this last weekend. Wow! Hugs and head butts to all at your place.
Great photo work Karl!
