Family time

The Woman got a nice surprise. Her cousin Diane decided to spend a weekish in South Padre Island this winter. Her rental condo was only a mile away from us, so the Woman got lots of cousin time in. And because she was as much a birder as we are, we spent a lot of that time at various hot birding locations.

Diane’s son Eric and his squeeze, Allie spent several days with her for some winter escape time from his Montana home. Eric is an ornithologist, so he helped correct many of our missed identifications of birds. One day we rented a golf cart and headed as far North as the road goes on the island. It was a gas!
Diane brought her Golden Retriever, Kalli, and Kona was beside himself with delight. The quickly became besties, and were inseparable when out on the beach.
The only down side was that the time together was too short. But we made the best of the little time that we had together.
Talk to you soon!
