Well the big guy celebrated his 50 something bday today. The weather was cooperative and he drove down to Windsor at noon to pick up Laura for the weekend. On the return, they stopped at the DMV in Tilbury to get the license tags for the vehicles. The ladies there gave Tom a lollipop and wished him happy birthday. When he got home the mail lady had delivered cards from Rosemary & John and Catherine & Bill. When I got home from school low and behold Tom had already made supper. To Laura’s delight it was his specialty mushroom-wine chicken using Linderman Bin 65. It was just right! Instead of a cake I baked an apple pie with sharp cheddar and a fine brew of Columbian java. And then the piece de resistance… a birthday serenade over speaker phone from Eileen. I know he has enjoying every minute of it as he is now relaxing in his bathrobe as I type. Tomorrow we will go out to the Rice and Noodle for Thai food. Hope you had a great day Tom.

I know that your birthday usually puts a smile on your face. It is the grande finale of the harvest, the crops are all in and sent to the mill, the land is put to rest and you can now count your pennies signifying another year of hard work. Another one bites the dust!
Happy Birthday from Cowtown. Any plans to come west?
Jean and I send you belated birthday greetings. We have been in Frederick Md. since last Tuesday evening visiting Teresa, Rhett, and Rylyn. John came with us and will be staying here on post at Ft. Detrick with Teresa and family for a while, hopefully finding a job here. Jean and I will be heading back to Ky. tomorrow. We would have called yesterday but all we have here is cell phones and international calls via AT&T wireless can get out of hand real quick. Hope all is well with you guys.
