Weekend Cat Blogging #187

Our first Weekend Cat Blogging of 2009 begins with Luna playing on the balcony, with some of the remaining construction in the background.

It really should be done sometime this month, after which all those extra columns and plastic will be gone. It will be great to have our full home back again. It feels like so much is waiting for that moment, including a few of our New Years resolutions.

This next photo was a lucky accident, a detailed close-up portrait of Luna giving and receiving love:

Weekend Cat Blogging #187 is hosted by Samantha and Tigger at Life from a Cat’s Perspective.

The Bad Kitty Cats Festival of Chaos will be hosted this week by Miz Mog and the Kitties at Mind of Mog

The Carnival of the Cats goes to The Whole Kitten Kaboodle this Sunday.

And of course the Friday Ark is at the modulator.

Some things never change.

(The original post has a larger pic of the synth)

This ETI Synthesizer project was built around 1979 by my father, the modules all worked when I powered them up recently (the original keyboard and power supply is not available due to someone connecting the mains to a +/- 12Volt input!) The modules consist of :

4 x VCOs
2 x VCFs
2 x VC Variable state filters
1 x Reverb unit
1 x VCLFO
2 x VC Mixers
1 x Noise/Sample & Hold module
1 x DRF
1 x Ring Modulator
2 x Dual ADSR modules
2 x Dual VCAs
1 x Dual Envelope Generator
1 x VC Envelope Generator
1 x D-A Convertor
1 PA (not tested)

Weekend Cat Blogging: Art, Fun and Rest

Luna admires a work of art, and becomes part of another:

A little humor with our art. We saw Luna enjoying her catnip-laced scratcher in a photo last weekend. Now we can all enjoy the video:

And we close out the final Weekend Cat Blogging of the year with this image of Luna in her favorite sleeping place:

Weekend Cat Blogging: Homecoming

After many weeks away, Luna finally came home today.

Exploring familiar places, tentatively at first.

As can be seen in these photos, the construction is not quite complete yet, though it is progressing and we hope it will be done soon.

Several treats awaited her arrival, including a new catnip-laced scratcher.

And of course some affection.

Welcome home, Luna!
