RATS!!! You just reminded me that I forgot to mail Mike's birthday card (which I have had for several months.) Well, I am going to mail it anyway with apologies for being such a forgetful old granny.
What a contrast in the two pictures you posted, eighteen years apart. Happy belated birthday to Mike! Love, Grandma Grace
I love those photos!! Sunrise, Sunset for sure!
Happy 18th + 1 Day, Mike!
