little get together

I belong to a "quilting" group that used to meet every two weeks at someone's home with snacks and something to drink. Some of us quilted... some worked on bears or cross stitch or jewelry or whatever. It was fun.

We missed the get together and each other so planned one outside. Sitting 6 feet apart earlier in the evening so it would still be light out...  still with snacks and drinks!! We didn't get much done but we did talk alot!!  The hassles of teaching  and parenting online was a major topic.  I sat there while the words whirled around me!

We sat on a deck ... lots of flowers, grass  and birds! Gold finches... both male and female were eating the sunflower seeds. A red tail hawk swooped over head looking for little field mice. The eagle didn't show and it was too early to hear the owl...

Around 8.30 mosquitoes showed up so it was time to head home!!

What a great idea! And how wonderful to be outdoors with friends.

Just seeing different humans...priceless.

Well it sure sounds like fun. At least you were with friends and got to talk a lot and enjoy being outside. Things have changed so much this year.
