The wine is coursing through you and through your friends but not down into the tributary of political discourse that can end up in an almighty row, but down the waterfalls of laughing memory.
Long forgotten stories and cackles emerge of times past while grand plans are made for the future still to be lived.
Sharing bread, barbecues and those generous anecdotes - the simple gentleness of caring for the people you love.
"Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one."
~~ C.S. Lewis

Sounds like you had a wonderful time Peggy, lovely words, lovely post. Good friends are precious indeed.
Your words are beautiful and it's an honour to be your friend. I really enjoyed meeting up with you.
Reminds me I need to catch up with Celia. I've been bad.
great way to express what friends are for.
Oh maybe that should be friends and wine are for.
That was a wonderful tribute to what good friends are for. Sounds like good times can be found in New Zealand (or anywhere we take the time to look!). Hugs!
Very nice, Peggy. You know, you should gather some of these more prosaic posts into a book.
That's a fabulous photo, Peggy - warmth radiates from it. Hope you are well, my friend.
I like the another saying of Lewis too, "Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less."
Lovely. Now that spring is here, I will have to have that kind of leisurely pleasure with friends. Thanks for such a positive post.
I meant to tell you on that previous post - coolest bench I've ever seen.
Beautiful photo Peggy. You all look happy and content.
