A February Post

Since the dawn of this blog, I’ve gotten at least one post in per month, so I better just write something.

It’s hard, though.

Life in the United States has been surreal and depressing. You know what I’m talking about.

So, what has been good?

Parties. Dinner parties, birthday parties, happy hours.

We went to visit Lali and Ed, which was so much fun and a great change of pace. It was lovely to see their new home. While Lali and Tim played duets, I sat on the couch with Ed and read New Yorker cartoons. It was relaxing and heavenly. We went birding and saw buffleheads and got to show Ed and Lali buffleheads! Isn’t buffleheads fun to say? Try it: Buffleheads.

We went to a dance festival and did a lot of contradancing and heard some good music.

My driver’s license is renewed, and the taxes are done.

My 2017 bird count pushed past forty today.

We’ve managed some beautiful cross-country skiing.

Today, however, it is nearly 70 degrees F, which is wonderful and weird and wrong.

Tim’s gal pals just showed up for a music date: another recorder player and a singer. I am hiding out and posting for the sake of February posting.

Buffleheads.
