birthday 65

What's 65? I'm not going to let the government decide what it is for me. Today it is a birthday. Last evening the next generation (Ryan in pic by Joel) and Dorcas gave me a good time. Thanks, everyone! The cake has the peace sign on it, based on the semaphore signs for nuclear disarmament. I never knew that! I was born months before the atom bomb entered the hands of warriors. So, I'm totally on the peace sign. When I was eight years old or so a plane approaching at night was surely the Soviet Union coming to drop an A-bomb on Monterey.
