If we had a like button, I'd give you 100 likes, Gracie. My Northern friends on our cul-de-sac are just starting to come back home. I have missed them and do miss the two couples who haven't returned yet.

Thank you Graciegirl for this lovely poem. You've made all of us snowbirds/snowflakes feel very welcome.

The northern birdies are back.

Old friends are returning
The night oil is burning
The northern birdies are back.

There's more entertaining
And much more complaining
The northern birdies are back.

Not much room at the market
And no where to park it
The northern birdies are back

Rookies on the roadways
Folks driving in strange ways
The northern birdies are back.

New ones and old ones
younger ones and older ones
The northern birdies are back.

Welcome HOME! We missed you.

What a great sentiment..................I feel loved

thanks Gracie

Thanks Gracie...
We actually spend the majority of our time in TV. (Guess we're snowflakes)
We're up north for the holidays and this AM it was minus 11 !!
Coming back Tuesday...and we promise to leave the cold weather up north!

Thanks for the poem Gracie. As Seasonal Residents, we LOVE returning to The Bubble.

And thanks also to Challenger.

Thank you for that Grace! We would be there now if our twin three year old grandsons had not decided to join the outside world on January 18. Hope to see our many TV friends beginning in February, and we promise not to cause too much trouble.

Their birthday cannot be missed.


Give them hugs from us.
