It is time to get pretty for the Christmas party
Today mom and I are going to the beauty parlor to get pretty for the Christmas party at my mom's former office in Orlando. This should be a fun time for the both of us. Mom is also making a rum cake for the party. Yesterday, mom and I went to the beach in the evening. Mom brought the leftover popcorn and fed it to the seagulls. They were very hungry and devoured the food until it was gone. Maybe, the gray weather made them extra hungry for food. This was a pretty nice sunset picture over the barbecue place on the North end of the beach. This barbecue place is not as nice as Sonny's, but it is there when I have the urge to eat some barbecue. Mom drove over the North bridge on the way home. At the time she drove over the North Bridge, the sunset was pretty much gone. There may have been one streak in the sky, but that was it. I was amazed when we passed over the North Bridge how dainty the pelican flight of gliding on the air current occurred . The pelican made soft circular glides with his wings spanning out to touch no end in sight. I also saw two water birds in flight on my way back home. Mom said they were heading towards bird island to settle in for the night.

A little scientific analysis on the picture. If you were photographing the sunset then you were facing west which means that you were east of the barbeque place. With the on-shore wind from the ocean at your back that means all of the fine barbeque aromas were blowing away from you towards the west and you didn't get to smell all of the delectable aromas of barbeque. When I worked at Disney and assigned to the position of marquee greeter I would be standing for at least an hour downwind from the Flametree barbeque restaurant in Animal Kingdom. The restaurant was only about 50 feet from where I had to stand. For an hour I got to smell those wonderful barbeque aromas. But if it was near lunchtime, then it was agony because it smelled so good it would make me even hungrier. I haven't been to a Sonny's barbeque since they closed the one on Colonial. I guess that I should try the one in Apopka. Barbeque, chinese food, Cicci's pizza, Golden corral, just so many eateries here in Orlando to sample. I think that I am getting hungry right now. Have a good day, I am going to get something yummy to eat. Lew
