Bead Meet April 30, 2009

April and I met Blanca on the grounds of the complex where she lives. It was a

warm slightly windy day, just beautiful. We were visited by some small blue birds

which were feeding their chicks in a nearby tree, a couple of dogs and their

owners and a mallard duck. The sounds of the fountains were occasionally

overshadowed by the trolley as it went by just a few hundred feet behind us.

Blanca and April

You can see how pretty the scenery is. Behind them is the San Diego River

and the trolley tracks. I sat facing them so got (IMHO) the better view.

Blanca made a golden twisted rope, April made a necklace with

natural stones, and I worked on my beaded spiders.

As I was leaving I saw this huge bird.

A Great Blue Heron maybe?
