Every year on March 19 Florence catches up with me so we’re the same age. At least for the next five months!

FLORENCE’S BIRTHDAY PARTY: It’s been very windy…too windy to do lots outside today for Florence’s birthday. Yesterday we went to the Clubhouse to mix with “the folks”… wouldn’t want to hang out there too often. So today we decided to celebrate Florence’s birthday at the Blue Water Resort and Casino for lunch. It appears to be a nice spot, located right on the water. There are four or five separate restaurants at the Resort and we’re debating which one to select. The River Willow high-end steakhouse doesn’t fit the bill and the River Walk Deli doesn’t seem quite right either. Let’s try the “River’s Edge Cantina. It’s just a stone’s throw from the water and is a completely open-to-the-great-outdoors place. Consists of a roof, pillars to support the roof and that’s about it. The weather was perfect: Bright and sunny without even a breath of wind!

Stan and Therese. We’ll see them again in Oregon in a couple months. It’s going to be tough saying even a temporary “Good Bye” after that when we head to Washington State and the East Coast.

My wife is a fairly unconventional gal. She’s made spectacular birthday cakes for dozens of our friends, but for her birthday she wanted a berry pie. So a pie it was.
