Happy Birthday, Ma

My mother turns 87 today. I went to hang with her at the nursing home. She was doing much better than I've seen in a long time.

Her wheels started comin' off in the fall of 2004. I moved her and Pop here from Florida back in 2007, and now she's been in long-term care for more than a year. My Dad finally died back in May, as some of you know. We miss the old Flight Commander.

It was great to see her smiling today.

I may see some of you tonight at the Zowie Bowie "Vintage Vegas" hang at the Ovation Room, Green Valley Ranch (6 pm).
