Big Day

It’s a big day around these parts, and not only because we have a place in the shadow of Columbine High School (1999). Also not only because 4/20 was once the focal point of the pot legalization movement before it became law-of-the-land (CO – 2014) and absolutely nothing – except tax revenues – changed.  Last but not least, it’s the birthday of an infamous German statesman (1889) – but let’s not go there, OK?

 

 

On this day in history, way back when I was just a callow fellow, a certain young lovely agreed to marry me – and life has never been the same. Whodathunkit?  After 35 years we’ve come full circle back to the Golden State.  And now we’re shacked up together again for a month by ourselves.  I gotta admit, the honeymoon in England staying in bed and breakfasts for 6 pounds a night was way more fun than quarantine – even when the only heat was a single heating pad in the center of the bed somewhere in the Lake District. But in any case, the company couldn’t be better. Thanks for making me more prone to smile. Apologies to Lou Gehrig, but you’d smile too when you’re the luckiest guy on the face of the earth. It’s been quite a ride.  Love ya lots!

 

And of course, the kids turned out OK too.
