It was a dark and stormy day here in New England, full of wind and rain....
I'd just settled down on the sofa after rearranging the family room when, suddenly, I felt as though I was being watched....
My hair stood on end ... I was covered with goosebumps... And that's when I spotted him, peering at me through the open slider doors... (if you look closely at the photo above, you'll see him, too!)
And he wasn't alone... While he crept closer to the door, his friend kept a lookout from the top of the chair... He came closer, and closer, until he was right at the door, and that's when he whispered...
"Oh Mrs. Peanut Lady!! It's only us, your beautiful blue feathered friends!" "Well why didn't you say so, Mr. Blue Jay! Of course I have peanuts for you!!!"
As I headed back to the sofa, that uncomfortable feeling of being watched came rushing back...
Closer and closer he came, until he was literally peering through the door at me!
"Did you forget me?" he asked. "Oh, Sammy, thank goodness it's only you! Of course I didn't! Here are some peanuts for you, too!!!"
Peanuts ... such a small price to pay to be visited by such special friends as these!!
