GIBSON GLEANINGS  Barbara Ray August 10, 2012  About 4:15 this morning, my husband and I were awoken by a VERY loud, heart thumping thunder clap and my first thought was – poor Bashful.  Let me explain.  We have two cats.  Mocha is the older of the two (somewhere past 17) with bad vision and equally [...]
