Turning 90





My grandmother turned 90 today. Its quite a feat if you think about it, and still enough to stop many in their tracks. The average age at the party today was probably well above 60, but I still managed to have a good time. I met many of these random people who know who you are, but you have no idea who they are. Weird as it sounds, it actually makes conversation a lot easier, because they know exactyly what to talk about. Plus these elderly people have often done a lot and been a lot of places by the time you get around to talking with them. I met not just one, but several people who had lived in Korea during the 1970s, which is interesting for me since by our standards anyone who had been there since 2002 was old blood. Other than that a lot of blathering, piping, drinking, and eating.

We're heading up the coast to desolation sound starting tomorrow, for what sounds like a rip roaring holiday.

Here's various pics of the birthday girl, but for more go to the link.
