Hi from lovely, although not sunny, Florida.  I’m here in Fort Lauderdale for the Broward Library Foundation’s  Literary Feast, which begins tomorrow with two packed days of programs.  But this afternoon I had a chance to enjoy the view from the balcony of my room at the Hyatt Pier 66, overlooking the Atlantic, and a fleeting few moments of sun.

A lovely lady from the Friends of the Library took me for a welcoming drink at the Pelican Landing.  We hoped to see the sun set, but it was too cloudy.  I did, however, enjoy the Pelican Punch, and I got a great shot of the bridge opening over the Intercoastal Waterway.

Tomorrow I’m speaking to five hundred high school students, so I’m hoping they will be kind, and that the sun will shine.
