Kentucky Pictures of the Day: A Couple of Little Stinkers

 

As you can see (if you’ve been to Genuine Kentucky before, that is), I’m in the middle of completely re-doing the website: re-designing, re-vamping, re-organizing. It’s raining “re”s up in here and it’s keeping me busier than busy.

Ever jump, excitedly into something then… when you get into it, realize there’s MUCH more involved than you initially thought?

I am SO there.

I actually thought of these pictures earlier while working on a few of the new pages. The pictures aren’t clear because I took them through my back door with a camera phone, no less. One of our outside cats (Hannah – a beautiful Tuxedo cat who’s the sweetest animal that ever lived) was eating breakfast, minding her own business when a little mother skunk waddled up with her baby and began eating from one of the cat food dishes.

Our outside cats get regular visitors from skunks, possums, raccoons, squirrels, etc – but the size of this skunk caught Hannah off guard.

Her expression said it all – “What’s with this little stinker? Friend of yours?”

 

 

When I ran into a problem earlier with a new page, I might or might not have called both the page and Monday stinkers. I immediately thought of Hannah and her own stinkers and knew I had my picture of the day.

It’ll take a while to get everything just how I want it but it’s all good – I work entirely from home so I don’t have to leave my desk unless it’s to grab another Chai Tea Latte. As long as they keep going in, I’ll keep going on.

It’s work, make no mistake about it – but I’m VERY excited about the new look. I know the new and improved Genuine Kentucky will be easier for you to access on iPhones, iPads, and other devices. I’m also making it as easy as easy gets for sharing information and pictures on social media and through e-mail.

I’ll be able to share Kentucky news and events with you immediately as well – I can “embed” tweets from other Kentuckians and agencies and spread news, events, pictures, and information faster than ever before.

I look forward to introducing you to a lot of new Kentucky photographers, authors, and enthusiasts. There’s a lot of us here in Kentucky who are very proud of our state and for many wonderful reasons, and we don’t mind shouting it from the tallest mountain… whether that mountain is Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook, Genuine Kentucky, or Pine Mountain, itself.

Over the coming days, I’ll add more to the navigation above, below, and to the side.  I want to make it effortless to access exactly what you need from wherever you are on the website. It’ll take me a few days, but we’ll get there.

I’ll just need more Chai Tea Lattes, that’s all.
