The sun is finally shining here in Beresford this morning and the temperature is in the double digits so we headed outside with our coffee.
It was so nice to sit and enjoy the birds singing in the trees and at our feeders.

My daffodils have been in bloom since April but some of my tulips are finally open.
The female American Gold Finches were busy on the sock feeder and the bird bath.
And while I enjoy more of my garden today, Paul is off for his first game of golf at the Bathurst Gowan Brae course today. I hope he doesn't come home with too much sand on his shoes!
I drove Paul to the Tupelo Bay Golf Centrein Garden City. He was meeting our South Carolina friend, Don, for his first round of golf, with his new clubs.
The early part of their day was sunny, but they did get a little wet with a late afternoon shower.
So what does a woman do while her man plays golf - she shops. I spent a couple of hours twacking. I also took time to enjoy some of the spring blossoms in the area. These pear trees are in bloom all over the area and are absolutely beautiful.
I later visited with Irm while the men golfed and then she treated us all to a nice home cooked meal of meatloaf and veggies. They are a lovely couple and have treated us with much kindness during our time here.
Tonight, Paul and I said good bye to Irm and Don, until next year as we sadly leave here at the end of this month.
Now retired, I am enjoying the simple life in northern New Brunswick with Paul. I think my Newfoundland blood brought me back to the ocean.
I love to watch the birds at our feeders and walk the beach looking for treasures. We have become snowbirds for winter.
