So today is my birthday

[Ohiogal]

No restaurant meals for us

Mr. Ohiogal is suffering from a bout of bad sciatica, anyway. But it will be a long time before we eat “in” anywhere. That’s perfectly okay with me.

I remember, as a kid, my birthday meant school had just started, and that was such a bummer!

I did get extra kisses today from my Lab Sophie

And we’re having BLTs with garden tomatoes for lunch in a bit

One nice thing about a September birthday is that the weather is usually nice! Blue skies, 80 degrees in the forecast later on.

My Chardonnay is chilling for later. 👍

And of course I will enjoy checking in with all you good folks here at DU

How does the sky look down there?

Here the AQI is 187 but at least the sky isn't orange anymore

I found ashes on my car this morning

Stay safe

[CaliforniaPeggy]

58. It has been gray for days! I"m not sure if ash is still falling here.

Last night, I took a photo of the setting sun; hang on while I get it for you to see:

Thank you!

[kairos12]

55. Happy Birthday Ohiogal. I hope along with any gifts you receive, you have

wonderful memories of the sound of the bat, the smell of grass and glove oil, and wonderful days and nights at the ballpark.

These players were before our time, but such a great remembrance of great players. A happy birthday video for you.

Check out J. Robinson stealing home. Classic.

[Ohiogal]

56. Thank you, kairos12!

I love this song and what a great video! Jackie Robinson stealing home, what a thrill. So many greats in that piece.

A reminder of days when times were simpler and people in this country were united in the love of America’s Pastime. Thank you for the wonderful birthday wishes!
