Fascinating that it takes awhile for a leopard to get its spots. Hilarious!

Brevity is opening, but I'll wait until the sun isn't so bright to take picrtures of it. It's really cute, first time I'm seeing it.

It's in our forecast, also, Tom ! It hit 85 today, and the wind has been a terror, so it's bound to "brew" us a storm !....Arlyn

Well the storm is on it's way, but for now is South of me, more coming from Iowa later though. I snuck out and got some pictures of Brevity. This was a new one for me, so it's the first time I have seen it. It's so cute!

I like it a lot too. The pink one is really more pink in real life, camera didn't get the color right.
The storm went between us, Arlyn, Beloit got a lot of rain, I'm just 8 miles North of that, but got hardly a sprinkle.
