I couldn’t believe we both posted cardinals at the (almost) same time. I was actually looking for something with snow - seeing that the country is in a “Global-FREEZING” state.
Checking the weather news, I see that in many Southern States thousands have lost power (Ala, Kan, Fl, Va, W.Va, Tn, etc.) Hope you don’t have any lapse in electricity.
Appetizers and drinks will be served for the next two hours.
Come when you can,
Dress casual and light
(That is, if you dare to feel the sun's warmth on your back,
Hear the water rush upon the rocks,
Breathe in the salt sea air,
Hear the birds softly singing,
And watch the palms trees ripple
In the soft breeze of summer.)
