Ben and Buffy Byrd are a senior retired couple (snow birds) living in the sunny South and enjoying every moment that life in the golden age has to offer. Their snappy sense of humor touches upon senior activities, family relations, friends, beautiful weather, money and (of course) the pleasure of simply growing older together. The weekly cartoon feature, always written in rhyme, was created by cartoonist/poet, Gus St. Anthony Bifani in 2001 and is regionally syndicated in community magazines and weekly newspapers in the US and Europe.
