Did Flaco's Spirit Really Come To Visit Us Yesterday?????????????????????

                      It was a routine Friday morning, and we were getting ready to eat breakfast, when David looks out the window, and says, incredulously, "There is an owl!  In a tree branch aligned with our apartment."  I could not believe it!  What would an owl be doing in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn??????????

                        Until I thought of Flaco.  The creature sat on its perch for several minutes, staring at us.  David went and got a set of binoculars, so I could see the owl for myself.  Sure enough, it was there.  Shortly after I had my look, it flew away, to who knows where??????????

                          Girls I am convinced the spirit of Flaco paid us a visit.  Maybe to thank me for all the kind words I have written about him over time, maybe to wish us a Happy Holiday, or maybe because this is the Season Of Belief.  Whatever, I feel honored to have been visited by Flaco.  I loved him so and still miss him dearly.  And he knew it and came to comfort me.

                             You can think what you want, darlings, but remember what it says at the opening of "The Song Of Bernadette"--For those who believe in God, no explanation is necessary.  For those who do not believe in God, no explanation is possible."

                                  I am telling you, that was Flaco!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
