Finally Friday - friends!

Last Saturday 12/12/20 Some social distance good cheer with long time friends Linda, Julie, and Tom (see below)

These pics were taken after a splendid afternoon on Linda's patio - sunny, high 50s, and no wind. Perfect for our annual gathering to celebrate Christmas and friendship.  Tom, the house elf, fetched food from Chili's. 

We were inside only to gather up stuff to leave and snap a few memory photos. 

They are way too happy - both retired this year and now eagerly await the pandemic end so they can hit the road.  Adventures await
Now today, I will be celebrating Joan's birthday (right) with my PA gang via Zoom.   Mary Ellen caught up with her a few weeks ago. 
Nov 2019 seems so long ago. Here's Lisa, Me, Joan, and Helen enjoying book club and an old fashioned indoor afternoon. 

But we've managed to hang out long distance. Friday's are Fun - I plan to have cake in Joan's honor (but I won't eat it in front of her on camera - ha)

Have a good weekend everyone and catch up with a friend for a laugh.

      we've actually gathered a bit more this year on patios than we ever did. It's fortunate both are retired so that frees up time and makes it easy if I can escape work early on a Friday or just meet on the weekend

    Catching up keeps one sane in these times, even if more outside and on Zoom.

      thanks. If you were closer, we'd wave from afar, and shout across 6 feet. Take care

    Hi Joanne - glad you can spend time in the great outdoors - the best place unless it's freezing or just plain cold/wet as here! Fun photos to look at and we can see the enjoyment you're having in your get togethers ... stay safe and bubblingly happy ... as you appear to do - cheers! Hilary

      thanks. And good luck to you in the UK - dodge the new strain and the old strain. Yikes.
      Have to try to keep smiling...
