Hello, Peeps and Pets! Vivian K. Perry here, fondly looking back on a memory from Summer 2022. Oh, how I miss the warm days on Perry’s Point! The brilliant sunshine, the butterflies and buttercups, the soft sea breezes and birds aplenty—yes, I know they will all come again, but I can’t wait.
The Photo Challenge prompt over at Xingfu Mama is Pull up a Seat.*
Well, a picnic table certainly counts, doesn’t it? Of course it does.
I don’t like going outside for very long when it’s cold. So in the meantime, I will endure the long winter by taking lots of naps, with pleasant dreams of long summery days. The good news? The days are getting longer! Do you look forward to summer as much as I do?
Oh! Before I forget, let me share Jennifer’s blogging anniversary. This blog, Jennifer’s Journal, has now entered its twelfth year! Meow and Wow!

Jennifer's Journal 
Happy 12th year! Amazing. So glad you’re here. And yes, the days are getting longer! It’s boosting my mood incredibly. Wishing you warmer days by the water soon . . .

Lately, too, she seems to be finding it colder (looking for a warm lap for example). Another sign of her advancing years. But yes, she still makes a stunning model! š»

The sun is so welcome, even in winter. We have a few more months of rain, and but hopefully some sun breaks here and there.

Happy Blogging Anniversary, Jennifer! Hope it soon warms up for Vivian so she can explore more along your beautiful coastline again. Days are light until five and bulbs popping up so loving the hint of Spring – but aware February is variable to say the least!

It is but today we had a cold spell. It went down to 4C. Cold for us. The dogs had to wear coats to walk on the beach. I know, Spanish dogs are wimps.

My goodness, that is cold for Spain. So strange too to see us actually hit warmer temps at times than Florida did last week. š»
