April not quite 365 days

17.  Have you ever seen bats flying in your area? Have you ever seen a bat up close or seen a bat house attached to a tree?

Yes, there are bats here. But I'm not out at night, much. So I don't usually see them.


18.  How often do you listen to the radio? If you do, what kind of things do you listen to (talk/pop/classical)?

I listen to it daily. The station is classic vinyl. I love it. It plays oldies. CCR, BTO, ELO and anyone else I used to listen to.

19.  In 1934, Shirley Temple starred in her first film. Have you ever seen any of her films?

I've seen all her films. When my kids were little I had them all on VHS tapes. My kids loved her. I miss seeing those tapes.

I was once dogsitting for my aunt's seven dogs when one evening they found a bat in her house. I have no idea how it got in or who first noticed it, but it definitely wasn't me. The only thing funnier than chasing a bat around a house with a towel is chasing a bat around a house with a towel and seven dogs leading the way. Barking of course. (I did somehow catch the bat in the towel and release it outside.)

Thank goodness you saved it. They are actually cute. They don't bother me much. But the story was quite comical. Thanks for the smile.

I haven't seen any Shirley Temple films. I have heard of her though.

They are so precious. You should look and see if they are streaming anywhere.

I used to have at least one bat in my house every summer because they lived in the attic. When I was married, I had the luxury of getting under the covers and screaming, but after my divorce, I had to take care of them myself. Fortunately, I had a cat who loved catching bats. He'd go from a crouch to six feet straight up in the air and catch them on the wing. So then I had to rescue them from him.

Cats are great. 😁🌹

Love CCR. Their music is still relevant.

Me too. I listen all the time.

Did you love the movies? With Shirley Temple? They were so sweet and cute.

I liked the music more than the films. Of all the older films I watched... Vincent Price will always be my favorite.
