We walked after an overnight rain, in the dark, and all the animals were under cover. I cut it short again after 20 minutes.
I had a nice long chat with my brother Germain this morning. It is always so nice to catch up on their news.
Daisy continues to give us an egg a day! She must be quite content in her new digs.
Before lunch we went out to get 2 more bags of wood shavings. After lunch we delivered them to Zoonosis to use as cat litter. Then I dropped off Cristina at Adiela's and came back home to nap, then shower.
At 4:45pm I delivered some more camera equipment and my professional tripod to my friend, the vet, John. He is so appreciative.
At 5pm I went to Wolf's for a BBQ that Fabiola managed on a small hibachi, for 6 people! And, she cooks things to perfection, nothing overcooked. I brought a dozen of the ham sausages to add to the steak, potatoes and salad.
Wolf and I and Alex, the son-in-law had some fun conversations as I took photos of the birds. A new one, a fork-tailed Flycatcher, had me mesmerized and I got a so-so shot of it with it's split tail in full view.
The sunsets are usually spectacular there as their place has a magnificent, unobstructed view. Tonight wasn't so phenomenal except for a great mushroom cloud that took a long time to disspate to allow the setting sun to paint the sky very briefly.
Wolf and Alex both kindly offered me a free place to stay anytime I decide to return to visit. I am so blessed to have such good friends everywhere.
Alex is also checking for me to get a document from the Government stating that I have no tickets or accidents for insurance purposes. Apparently this can be generated online so I don't know how acceptable that will be...
I called Cristina at 9:30pm as I was leaving, expecting her to be home ahead of me, but she was actually catching a "pirata" taxi for home at the same time.... I really don't like leaving the dogs alone for such a length of time.
I hope you enjoy the pictures. That was the day’s excitement.
