We have "company" [our son] here for the weekend and into next week. It's been
over a year since we've seen him; blaming the pandemic. And, since we are all now fully vaccinated and
he has time off from teaching 'til Summer Semester at the university, we are
going to take advantage of every minute he's with us. Games, dining out, just
catching up on lost time. So, for this weekend, I hope you'll excuse me from
visiting y'all and know that I truly appreciate you sharing your birds with us
here at I'd Rather B Birdin'. See you next week!!
