I had just fixed myself a snack of sliced banana and pineapple chunks in pineapple juice when Joann called and asked "are you up for sitting out on the Patio?" "Always" was my answer. So out we go.  The snack in the Refrigerator for later.
We were out there maybe five minutes when we both decided we needed something to buffer the wind. It was 70 degrees and the sun was shining but the wind was whistling through the trees. Joann came in got a Throw for her and an Afghan for me. We were covered from head to toe. Joann sitting on the Green Bench. Does anyone remember the Green Benches in St. Petersburg? I do.Â
Oh, a Humming Bird came by stopping at his Feeder for a snack. Joann pointed him out to me. He was just a little thing with a red neck which I mentioned to Joann and she said "that's because he is a Ruby Throated Humming Bird, Mom". This reminded me of the time Becky told me the bird bothering me at the clothes line with Red Wings and Black Body was a Red Winged Black Bird. Guess my Daughters are more interested in Nature then I ever was. Until now that is, how can I help not be interested in Nature with so much of it right in our back yard.
When it came time to come in we were walking to the door with the cover ups on our heads and I said "hope no one sees us they will think we are members of that Cult that they discovered this past week."
The end of a perfect day - watching the Rays play ball. Hope they win.

Love and prayers from here to there
