We were invited this afternoon to Alice and Gerard’s house at 4, for cake and champagne to celebrate two birthdays - their niece Cathey’s (visiting from Australia) and mine. Just before 4, Romain and Dominique arrived across the street, for the first time in almost a year. We were thrilled to see them! Gerard went right over and invited them to the celebration. It was a happy time for all of us, neighbors and friends, in Alice and Gerard’s backyard!
