Son Chuck has a little Air-Stream, at the port, where we gathered to ring in the New Year, and celebrate my b-day, and our anniversary. We plan to build a cypress lodge in the next year or two. Not a late night, Chuck's fireworks display started at 9pm. The battery on my camera went out, so I have no photos, but Chuck fired them off the dock, which is high and way out in the river and they were absolutely unbelievable and beautiful, we've never seen better!!

Prior to dinner, the kids rode 4 wheelers on the beach and woody trails. Our entertainment was Randy from AL, who is a falconer, and his bird is Chance, but he's a red tailed hawk. Randy rescues birds and trains birds, and then trains the bird with the owner. Chance is Randy's, raised from a baby, when he was found injured, close to death, with a band - Randy prayed for the bird to be given a 'chance' - oh the power of prayer!!! Randy and Chance are amazing, what a beautiful sight seeing Chance fly & work over the river was breathtaking and those photos were a bust because my digi won't zoom that far. Chance would get so far away it was scary, Randy never wavered, and Chance returned, straight as an arrow, time after time. I hope you enjoy my photos. Again, thank you all for a wonderful b-day, I appreciate each and every one of you being here and I hope the new year brings you good health and great joy, and wonderful big, fat, double red brugs, that are despised by bugs, require little tending, water and fert, and will grow in wind, rain, sleet, snow, hail and thrive in temps of 115 degrees to below -25, and pod and root in a flash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
