Graduation Day....

He was ready to go

as was he.
I think this one too...he was walking very fast on campus!
I snapped a few shots of this beautiful campus...
Roses...
Agapanthus...
Agapanthus...
Agapanthus...(say it three times Kerin!)
Him or her again!
The faculty lined up for the ceremonies...
This morning...
The commencement speaker...President Coleman from University of Michigan.
 With graduation notes in the air the cat boys chose this passage to reflect upon.

The mystic and the physicist arrive at the same conclusion; one starting from the inner realm, the other from the outer world. The harmony between their views confirms the ancient Indian wisdom thatBrahman, the ultimate reality without, is identical to Atman, the reality within.  (Fritjohf Capra)

 May Purrs and kitty kisses follow you this weekend!

Ciao!

    Oh the worried look in Ollie´s eyes, the curiosity of Augustus and the turtle in such a hurry.
    One name was mentioned?
    Is he a friend of your´s?
    I think that this Graduation Day means that your fully deserved vacation is soon to begin?
    Congratulations!

  11. Hi Mona. I've been away too long. Happy graduation! The cat boys look as handsome as ever. And spotting a turtle on its way to somewhere is always nice. Pretty Agapanthus too.
