Anita's Seat

I am posting a bit early tonight because it is photo club tonight.

Today is my sister's birthday.

This seat on the waterfront, close to where I live, was a favourite spot for Anita to sit watching the ocean when she was here on a visit from the UK in 2013.

As you can see David is keeping the seat warm until her next visit early in the new year.

Happy Birthday Anita hope you have a lovely day.

I tried to catch up last night, but unfortunately, our internet was playing up a bit. Still recovering from our recent cyclone.
Anita checks out my 365 from time to time to see what I am getting up to so I am sure she will check this one out too.

[Anita]

Sorry for a late thank you Babs for your birthday picture and wishes. Very happy memories of some very happy, peaceful moments sitting on that bench! Thanks belatedly to everyone who posted happy birthday wishes to me too. That was so nice of you.

[Barb Newcomb]
