SUNDAY AFTERNOON

A front brought us cooler air on Sunday which made for a pleasurable afternoon. It was 2.54 pm and I'm hanging out on the couch YT surfing. Lord Bertram has not risen yet. My new day lilies are blooming.

The Diner and bath have been doing a brisk business. Many mating couples have stopped by the bath-sparrows, finches, jays and cardinals. I put on some music:

 


 "Summer" by War from 1976.

Ridin' 'round town with all the windows downEight track playin' all your fav'rite soundsThe rhythm of the bongos fill the parkThe street musicians tryin' to get a start
 
'Cause it's summerSummer time is hereYes it's summerMy time of yearYes it's summer My time of year
 
Stretched out on a blanket in the sandKids of all ages diggin' DisneylandRappin' on the C.B. radio in your vanWe'll give a big ten four to the truckin' man
 
'Cause it's summerSummer time is hereYes it's summerMy time of yearYes it's summer My time of year
 
Young boys playin' stick ball in the streetFire hydrants help to beat the heatOld man feeding pigeons in the squareNighttime finds young lovers walking there
 
'Cause it's summerSummer time is hereYes it's summer
 
In Atlantic City or out in MalibuOr any where between, I'm telling youWhen you feel those balmy breezes on your faceSummer time is the best time any place
 
'Cause it's summerSummer time is hereYes it's summerMy time of year
 'Cause it's summerSummer time is here (yes it is)Yes it's summerMy time of year
 'Cause it's summerSummer time is hereYes it's summer (yes it is)My time of year

Big Blue, the Jay, was flying back and forth picking up the peanuts I had thrown out.

He saw me standing at the picture window taking a photo of the new lilies. As he dropped down from the birch for another peanut, he gave me a short two-tone call to say thanks.

  1. The jays come first thing in the morning and wait for breakfast now.
