Good Morning!
Are you all ready for the challenge for this week? Well, I’m not quite sure if it’s as hard as or easier than last Tuesday BUT I will say that even I can see a few “hints” in this photo.
This was taken by my Mom (who else?) on a trip she and my Dad took in 2007. She said it started raining about ten minutes before she snapped this photo – she was sitting on a bench in this little “square” admiring this fantastic carousel, and Dad had wandered off to find something for Mom to drink (not a martini…..a cocoa or coffee!!).
So here’s the photo…………..gimme your best shot and I’ll tell you tomorrow where/when AND who gets the coveted Tuesday Teaser Prize:
Big Sammy Hug !!
Now, on to other things! As you probably know if you’re in the loop for where all the “happening” parties are happening, you know Mollie and Ranger are hosting a Valentine’s Ball!
I’m very proud to say that my girlcatfriend Sundae has agreed to be my date. We’re going to RSVP to Mollie soon with a photo of the two of us all jazzed up for the PAR-TAY. If you need details, go to Mollie’s and get them – you surely don’t want to miss this event!
My lovely girlcatfriend Sundae (checking out the outfit she got to wear to the PAR-TAY which is in the bag!)
Happy Tuesday – Teasers, PAR-TAYS, there’s always something going on in the blogosphere isn’t there?
Kitty hugs, Sammy

Martini, cocoa or coffee , hmmm
It must be somewhere in France
Valentine`s Day Ball sounds like great fun
Will check it out at once !
Jan 15, 2013 @ 07:54:19
Oh goodie Charlie – I hope to see you at the Ball. It should be a BLAST. So you think my parents snapped that carousel somewhere in France huh? Come see me tomorrow and find out!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy

Kitty Hugs, Sammy

could it be paris, place de hotel de ville? I haven’t a partner for the ball – must find some one or I have to dance with myself…and those “myself” is always stepping on my feet – ouch!
Jan 15, 2013 @ 07:53:04
Hi Easy! Good guessing about the Teaser but I’ll have to let you know tomorrow if it’s Place de Hotel deVille in “Pareeeeeee” or not! As for not having a date for the ball – I think Mollie and Ranger are going to be helping with “match-making” for those who need a date. Trust me – there are tons of girlie dogs who will be THRILLED to go with a handsome dude like you!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 08:17:29
I will post an ad today….. hope someone wants to dance with me – or I have to go with one of my chicken ( that’s two for one, I have a date AND a snack)
Jan 15, 2013 @ 17:04:20
Hmm….going with a chicken might not be a bad idea Easy so if you’re hungry and don’t like the food Ranger and Mollie give us you’re ALL SET! But something tells me you’re going to find the perfect date!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 06:13:24
Oh my, what a beautiful girl you’ve got for the Valentines ball. Have a blast Sammy!
Jan 15, 2013 @ 07:51:09
Hi Miss Susan! I think Sundae’s beautiful too……Are any of your animals coming to the Ball???
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 07:54:20
With my search for Jangles, I haven’t even had time to think about it. Would love to join in but time is so limited and Jangles is more important than anything else at the moment. Hopefully I will find her and still be able to join you guys.
Jan 15, 2013 @ 07:56:36
Mom and I are praying every single day that Jangles comes home…..soon.
Love, Sam and Pam

I am going to guess toulouse as typist has been to toulouse, saw a carousel and it rained (thunder and lightening) while she was there!
Jan 15, 2013 @ 07:50:26
Gee Basil…..excellent “sleuthing” there my friend…..I’ll let you know tomorrow if Mom and Dad were in Toulouse when they snapped this photo of the beautiful carousel in the rain!

Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 13:53:12
I’ll go for northern France, somewhere near the border with Germany, Strasbourg or somewhere close. If I have a blinding flash of inspiration after dinner, I shall pop back.
Jan 15, 2013 @ 17:12:50
Hi Isobel……..come see us in the morning and see if your “flash” let you down or not!!
Pam
Jan 15, 2013 @ 14:20:33

Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend, Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend, Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend…
Tee hee
Jan 15, 2013 @ 16:13:24
*snicker*
Jan 15, 2013 @ 17:14:21
Oh now Satchie you know as well as I do that one of these days not far from now you’ll be old enough to have a catboyfriend!!!!! You’re just TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cute!!!!!
Kitty Hugs and Kisses, Uncle Sammy
Jan 17, 2013 @ 02:49:21
Maybe… but in the mean time… Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend, Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend…
Hugs
Jan 17, 2013 @ 07:54:54
Oh Satchie….you crazy, cute little thing you!
Uncle S
Jan 17, 2013 @ 15:50:23
purrrrrrrrrrrrs to you dear uncle Sammy
Jan 17, 2013 @ 16:45:32
Purrrrrs right back at you little Satchie!
Kitty Hugs, Uncle Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 17:29:11
I thought at first it was the carousel in the old town Geneva but then the sign gave it away:
I think it is: Carrousel de la place Gutenberg – Strasbourg, France
Jan 16, 2013 @ 06:46:26
Mom couldn’t remember the square’s name but that’s probably what it was Princess Z! Definitely in Strasbourg though so help yourself to a BIG hug!!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 18:51:55
I don’t know, but I love a Carrousel!
Jan 16, 2013 @ 06:46:51
I do too (so does Mom)…..that was a particularly PRETTY one too don’t you think??
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 15, 2013 @ 20:14:37
European is all I can think of…but Mom and I still luvluvluv the carrousel at the Santa Cruz California boardwalk…the best
Jan 18, 2013 @ 03:09:14
Ah-ha! I see this post is the reason for the kid going around in circles singing “Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend, Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend…”
Beautiful girlcat. No wonder you fell for her!
Jan 18, 2013 @ 07:27:48
Hi Jay! Yes – Little Satchie seems to find it cool that her Uncle Sammy has a girlcatfriend…..Sundae is a beauty isn’t she? She’s an “only cat” like me and we love each other from afar – she lives in southern Virginia and I’m in northern Virginia but we both like to watch the world go by from our window seats. There is quite an age difference since I’m a senior BUT they say true love knows no age boundaries!!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Jan 22, 2013 @ 20:09:43
Right you are, Sammy. Right you are.
You’re in Virginia? My human was in Alexandria, VA last summer. She loved it
Jan 23, 2013 @ 07:34:22
Oh Alexandria is a way cool town (the old town especially). My parents used to live closer to Alexandria – now we’re out in “NOWHERESVILLE” (Warrenton) which is probably an hour and a half or so from Alexandria out in the country.
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
