today is wonderful wife Dianne’s birthday… Neither of us like making a big deal about birthdays… But it is nice spending the day together.

10… I am so happy to be spending these years circling the sun with you. You are my best friend and the love of my life. Happy birthday my love

Our friends Deb and Jenn invited Diane up for breakfast and ‘Diane invited me… It was so wonderful. Deb had made whipped butter, homemade clotted cream and lemon curd and waffles so delicious and such a nice way to celebrate Diane birthday…

It was kind of a drizzly and cold day but we were able to get out for a quick hike up to Huntington gorge… It’s not good to get outside despite the weather

Once we gotten our exercising it was time for cake… I got ‘Diane her favorite chocolate mousse cake from chefs corners… In such a yummy treat in the middle of the afternoon

There was a spring party for Beto at higher ground last night and Dianne decided that was a good thing to do on her birthday so she Kyle Hunter Deb and I went to the party… It was really fun. So many people excited about the same thing… And so many great Vermont connections

our friend Ryan’s band played an opening act and then there was another surf band. Great food, great company. We left good in early because Diane had a very early flight the next morning.



We ran into several old friends including a very good friend Jessie



And tomorrow Dianne leaves for Portland… We need to get out of the house by 4 AM… yawn

nite all, nite sam
