Tomorrow is Tim's birthday and for any of you who don't know us that well, this will continue our streak of something like 20 years that we haven't spent it together (maybe even 25?). Tim is on Nomad tonight and I am in Indianapolis doing battle with a rather incredible amount of poison ivy in my son-in-law's yard since he is critically allergic to the stuff. To his credit, he did try to deal with it himself but somehow or another the vile juice snuck between his shirt and gloves and now he's miserably covered with weeping blisters. Mom-in-law to the rescue. The yard is shaping up nicely in preparation for their home sale. I do believe, though, that this is the first time that our not being together on Tim's birthday was due to me - usually it's a flight of his that does the duty.
At any rate, Happy Birthday Captain. And whether we happen to be together to celebrate it or not, my heart is with you today and every other one.
