Comments:

I put my 40 years in education at Dekalb College in Atlanta, GA., retired for one week, and re-entered education as a substitute teacher...primarily in the middle school area. Am still active in photography doing weddings, seniors, families, and whatever else will pay me. Diane and I decided to leave the "problems" of Atlanta in April and we moved to the foothills of North Georgia. We have a home on 2&1/2 acres of woods near Dahlonega. Now, I'm trying to get into the school system up here. Diane runs her own marketing company with clients from all over the world. We are avid ship cruisers...just returned from the Baltic and Russia. Being in Russia was a thrill.
School Story:

Gotta' think about this.

I quit birthdays years ago...I have even forgotten how young I am. But, IF you celebrate...Have A Happy. Did you get snow? We got six inches!!!!!! A mere dusting as Trudy, my sister, called it. But, she is in Colorado.

3/4's of a century and we made it. I've spent four hours in the garden and am feeling every moment of it. Let's wish for a few more...in the garden or at the camp. Happy Birthday!

You are almost as old as me, but at my age, I've forgotten how young I am. Have a good one, and remember that vertical is better than horizontal...well, most of the time.

Birthdays...bah humbug. They should be a thing of the past. BUT, let's hope the grumpies do not invade your birthday. Have a Happy...and many more.

It has been awhile since I heard from you, but such good news...you are older. While we hate to admit that we are aging, it is always nice to see grass from the top. Happy Birthday.
