We are just getting ready to experience some warmer weather for a change, and everybody is excited, since we've been much colder than normal for the entire month of February and the first part of March. It's about time. This means that all those patches of ice that have bothered our hikes will soon be history.
My baby brother turns 60 tomorrow, which astounds me. I remember the day he was born, in Texas, when I was sixteen. I remember dropping an ink cartridge that day in school. In my mind's eye, I can still see the dark spread of black ink on the tile, thinking that it figures: it was Friday the 13th. Now it seems like it was a lucky day after all. Happy birthday, dear brother!
:-)
That photo is beautiful, and baffling.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your little brother.
Intriguing photo!Happy b-day to your younger bro!
ReplyDeleteA lucky day for all involved!
ReplyDeleteI saw the falls in Yosemite turn into fire when the sun setting light hit it! They call it a firefall.
Kinda weird for sure. As to changing though on past event my recent struggles involve my own life have left me thinking that a dark cloud was following me. My dear d.i.l. as Iv'e survived them all in reasonable good shape there was no dark cloud but guardian angels who are following and protecting me...:)
ReplyDeleteTemperatures are rising here . Keep on sending the warm stuff.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you explained the amazing photo. I'd have never figured it out.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your brother. Somehow we don't mind our own aging but are so surprised when our younger relatives do.
Happy birthday to your brother. I was 60 too once upon a time.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great photo! Happy Birthday to your brother:)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your brother! It's my birthday too, I'm four years younger than him.
ReplyDeleteP.S. I'm the only one left in my fifties, all my siblings are in their 60's and 70's. It was funny when it happened in my 40's, now it's just kinda sad.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your brother. Sixty is a big one as I remember.
ReplyDeleteAs the youngest kid myself, I think I can safely say that your brother appreciates the happy birthday. Sounds like you're a great older sister!

ReplyDeleteThanks DJan (and everyone else). And happy belated birthday to Pippa!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I ever knew that a black ink spill portended my birth. That's cool! :-)
That is the coolest shot! We have a lot of 13s in my family. March 13 is my nephew’s birthday. Happy birthday to your wonderful brother.
