…..The storm that hit New York City last night…..

“Nor Rain, Hail, Snow, or Hail…Stops the Pearls”!

Last night being Saturday Night…we 5 Pearls went to dinner…as usual.

The TV screamed Nor’easter storm alarm in our area of the East Coast.

Hysterical wind, buckets of rain and floods.😨

We Pearls aged 85 to 98 decided to fight the elements & have our weekly dinner out…anyway.

Raincoats, umbrellas, on foot, walker, medical scooter with bright lights-we ventured out with sheer determination to hit the French cafe across the wide, busy avenue.

“No way in hell “ would we not… enjoy our social dinner out.

As we approach the front of the cafe as if on cue… a waiter lays out the portable ramp for us to maneuver the high cement step up into the establishment.

As we approached, I announced as I usually do, “Make way here comes the Queen with her ladies' “.

The help & any patrons SMILE! 😊😊😊😊😊

We Pearls have become neighborhood celebrities…5 old ladies having fun together every Saturday Night at some neighborhood eatery. 💕💕💕💕
