Happy birthday....

..to me.  Today I am 76 years old which is much better than the alternative.   A friend suggested that, considering what a year 2020 has been, I should demand a do-over, but really, there's not that much difference between 75 and 76.  Except last year, as I pondered turning75, all I could think of was 'three quarters of a century' yikes.  This year the refrain that keeps running through my mind is the song '76 Trombones,' much more fun.  No big party this year, although I was taken out to dinner on Friday. Yum. Today's birthday greetings were all by Zoom, phone, Facebook and text.  All very 2020ish.  I did receive some actual birthday cards earlier this week.  One of my very favorites showed pictures of about 20 variations of the VW bus on the front.  This brought back floods of memories of many, many camping trips.  During the 13 years we owned it. our VW camper conversion carried us on trips to all 48 contiguous states and parts of Canada. Sweet memories, indeed.
