That’s my age after today. And my friends in Bisbee made it maybe the most special birthday I’ve ever had. I know a lot of you have left me messages today and I appreciate that… And I promise I will respond to each and every one of you tomorrow.
This afternoon was special. Martha and I drove the buggy down to our Tack Street Niche… overgrown with weeds but we parked anyway… and walked down to the Grand. For, I think, the third time this week we… I… had gotten the time wrong… It was our … my… belief that Keith Allen Dennis along with Ole Lang Syne and Sam and Danielle Panther… were starting at two and it was two and the bar was deserted… Haven’t seen it that deserted since we began to trust the vaccine!…
So the music didn’t start til 3 and Martha and I sat there and watched as Keith Allen arrived and then Sam and they began to set up … anyway, we enjoyed sitting there until the music started when we were surrounded by Bisbee friends…
and some fantastic Bisbee music… It’s the reason I’m here.
Thank you all for making my seventy-fourth a reason to maybe stick around for the next one.
Oh my gosh Bill, Happy Birthday! I’m so out of touch since I’ve been taking care of grandkids but I did remember that our birthdays were close together. I hope yours was fantastic! 🤗

I had been thinking about you this week. Can’t remember if yours is before or after mine but that they are about the same time, just a number of years apart! Thanks.

I’m glad it was a good birthday. I turned 74 last September. Take a look at my post from them called 74 and there’s so much more. It’s a good age. I’d like to stay here for five or six years, and then turn 75. But somehow I don’t think it works like that.

Thanks, Emilie. I had forgotten your blog and went back to read it. I have come to think that every year I have another birthday to celebrate is a good year.
