    Houseboat on the Mississippi River

    A home is not a mere transient shelter: its essence lies in the personalities of the people
    who live in it.

  • And how IS your house today, dear?

    :heartbeat:,

  • that is a NEAT house.  And I agree with the quote.

  • I love houseboats.  I don’t know why I find them fascinating, but I do.

  • That is obviously considerably upstream from the giant brown mudslick that slides past this city.  I’d like to see this face of the river someday.

    The photo gives me a peaceful feeling.  Thanks for sharing it today.

  • That’s where I want to live! It looks like Eden… xo

  • That’s awesome, I don’t know if I’ve even ever seen a picture of a houseboat before, just heard about them in books. And I love how it’s this bright little spot of sky blue amongst all taht green.

  • Houseboat, or Boat House? Either way, I love floating archetecture. Thank you so much for the pictures.

    I think that the color/texture contrast makes this shot.

  • You must have a beautiful home.

    I saw your name in the link, but after clicking some of the others, I got confused as to why and what it represented.

  • no grass to mow!

  • there was a TV advert of house paints in India and
    your post reminded me of its hindi narration.
    loosely translates to:
    It’s something this house says,
    about the person in it who stays..

    ofcourse much nicer in hindi poetry.

  • I could use a month at that place.  I really need a long vacation.  I need to slow down and be still for a while. 

  • i can see it now…

    that’s cool. i like the reflection. i need a vacation like that.

  • About your poor kitty….Have you changed food recently or had something new done around your house? I was thinking this sounded like allergies. Cats can have hair loss with food allergies. I was just wondering if this might be the case. I would say that it also could be nerves, but since it just started I doubt this is the case.

    Did you take her to the vet when you thought she had a cold? Sometimes they will inject the kitty with Antibiotics and they can get a bald spot from that. If she is taking oral meds, that would do it too.

    Keep me posted on how she’s doing. My kitties, maya and elsie, are worried about her.

  • it reminds me of something from my childhood, but I can’t quite put my finger on it.

  • nice pic.

  • i’d enjoy floating around on my back in that photo, cher M….

  • Okay, Dotter.    I love your older pics, but you camera will rust if you don’t start using it soon.   This is a direct order.   Go out and shoot something.

  • Happy Monday, M! 

  • The blue is stunningly bluetiful.

  • Like to spend a weekend on a houseboat. If no alligators near by that is.
