After a week of dreary weather, a sunny Monday morning replenished my Vitamin D. I made a short trip to the Wildlife Refuge at Sardis Lake and enjoyed Earth Day in a most natural setting. As you dance through the first song, I hope you’ll browse the photos I took of the many birds I encountered.

I may be working this week with hay seed and be late to greet everyone properly. I will join you after our day is over. I hope your Thursday goes well until we speak again.
