Congratulations on your virtual blogging adventure! Hi!

Coral looks around. There is no one at the door. Laying on the floor of the porch is a 5 by 6 inch red envelope.

What on earth is this, she exclaims.

She stoops to pick up the envelope. It is blank and sealed. She looks around again. Hesitatingly, she walks out to the edge of the porch and scans the yard. A breeze is moving the leaves on the maple tree. A squirrel chatters at her from a high broad branch in the tree. Otherwise, there is nothing unusual to see, no human in sight.

She walks back across the porch into the door and closes it behind her. It must be meant for me she mentally muses to herself.

She walks across the room to the desk in the corner of the living area. Coral chooses the bone handled letter opener from the pen holder. She very carefully slides the thin bladed letter opener under the envelopes glued down flap; Trying to make as little damage to the envelope as possible. With her eyes on the envelope she carefully reaches out and lays down the opener with the elaborate handle. The contents of the envelope are stiff and have a slight amount of weight. She slides out a $25 Amazon gift card. A small slip of paper also slides out and falls to the desk top. She picks up the paper. There are typewritten words on it. THINKING OF YOU, HAPPY SHOPPING!she reads.

Leaving the note and the envelope laying on the desk top Coral moves across the room and sits down in an easy chair. She turns the gift card over in her hand with a contemplating look on her face.

I haven't the slightest idea who left this here or why. , she thinks. Or if I should even use it.

WHAT DO YOU THINK SHOULD CORAL GO SHOPPING WITH THE MYSTERIOUS GIFT?
