Wow, and I thought I was getting up there in age!
You may have to let Eva and Lucy help blow out the candles.

Thanks for all of the birthday wishes . . . it was a good day . . . we had a measurable rain finally, and I left work at a reasonably normal time for the first time in weeks, and there is a flourless chocolate cake waiting to be eaten . . . what more could a guy ask for . . . except a few lavendar chicks maybe! ;)

Hope you get your lavenders soon!

Hope you had a great birthday Michael.   Glad I checked in tonight or would have missed it completely!    Keep up the good work with the birds and here on the forum.   Hope you get your lavenders soon.    That is a project I had thought of many times over the years, but could not justify the space when the existing varieties still need so much work.  So I\'m definitely glad to see others doing the work.

Thanks Michael - as soon as I get off this diet, about 20 lbs from now, I\'ll give it a try!
