Cheers!

A breezy evening set the stage for the SCCF Welcome Back Wine Tasting Fundraiser.  Catering was by Leslie Adams, and an assortment of 6 wines from New Zealand, California, Argentina, Australia, South Africa, and Tasmania.  This is the foundation’s 41st anniversary, no better way to kick off the season than with a wine tasting featuring “critters” on the bottle label or in the name!  Click here for more pictures.

Look who I met today! Norman, the female parrot. She was named before she was gendered. Norman is 20 years young and is seen all over the islands with her favorite friend, owner Les. Les insisted that she and I meet with our famous branding “pink and green”. She didn’t have to dress for the occasion. She is a real natural with a huge vocabulary.  This beautiful Yellow Naped Amazon can be seen doing her daily errands around the island. If you run into her and Les, tell them we said “HELLO” bwaackk…
