Sisters

It's just breaking dawn here in Fort pierce, Judy has gone for her morning walk to the Clubhouse to get a newspaper. I am sitting on the sun porch listening to the early morning sounds of birds and bugs. Behind me is a box hedge and beyond that is the seventh fairway of a golf course. The edge of the course itself is lined with mature palm trees that are close enough to each other that the palm fronds are touching. Quite a nice view and different than the one in my small backyard in Illinois.

This my third day here in Sunny Florida. It rained the first two days, and the same forecast today. This afternoon we are driving up to Orlando to say good bye to our sister, Carol. Her health is at a point where right now she needs to have someone with her. Her daughter, Angela - one of Vern and my favorite people - is taking her back to live with her in Virginia. Her D-I-L, Kelly has come down from Connecticut to follow them in Carol's car. So tonight will be a "Sisters Night Out" with a couple of nieces thrown in for good measure. The four of us don't get together too often so be on your toes, Orlando, the Scovil girls are in town.
