Hello Friends!
I have returned to my computer, hooray! It is tough just having dial-up on “vacation”. With the 4th of July library closings, and the budget cuts I did not get to the write, or check email. Today I was back at my day job, and things should start to return to “normal”. Between working, taking two trips to NC within two months, and having company–whew; I had lost the “go”! button.
So, we left the more temperate climate of Western NC for the lovely barbecue pit of Florida; and, here is a hint–we are the barbecue! I will miss the hummingbirds and songbirds at the feeders. I can’t complain; I did get some “R and R”, amid the chigger bites! I am a magnet for mosquitoes and chiggers, I swear!
Here is a poem that gives you the aura of Florida in the summer. Enjoy and have a blessed day!

DELRAY
Plastic pink flamingos
Protect the yards
Lizards lounge
Contemplating Nietzsche
Florida sun
Frying pan on medium
Sizzling soon
Leaves dressed
In liquid garments
Of slick humidity
Humans dart
In and out
Savoring indoor
Ice cream air
Slight breeze
Stirs the dankness
Locals linger
On the Avenue
Celebrating
Snowbird summer secession
From Delray’s shores

Joan Ellen,Sorry we didn't get to see you while you were in NC. We had a good turn out today at \”Coffee with the Poets.\” Sounds as if it's really hot in Florida. We got a lot of rain last night and it's nice and cool today. Have a good time in FL and hope we'll get to see you when you come back to NC.
