I never thought I'd spend my 72nd birthday this way.

I share my birthday with my now 6 year old grandson. July 18th we all met at the Williamsburg Water park in Virginia to celebrate. My intention was to watch the kids have fun. I was enjoying the wave pool but soon found we were all headed toward the water slides. I somehow got up the stairs and flopped into the raft. So far so good I thought. In a matter of seconds I was airborne for what seemed like an hour. I didn't even have a chance to die. The worse part was getting out of the raft because of my bad knees. I sort of rolled out and my daughter helped me up. Having survived the first one I was persuaded to go on 3 more. Quite an experience I must say, and a lot of fun.. The shirt was a fun gift from my daughter. Every once in awhile a subject will come up that reminds me of something that was discussed on this Senior Forum. I usually share the comments with them. I guess I do it quite often because she thought this shirt was appropriate. I hope you don't mind being referred to has a peep. I'm in the back of the raft with my daughter, my two Grand kidswendy,me raft (800x600).jpgme,kids at watherpark' (600x800).jpgpeeps shirt (800x600).jpg and myself by the pool and my peep shirt.
 

Happy birthday, Ruth. Glad you had a good one. Youngsters like yourself need to keep making all those wonderful memories. They'll bring back sweet thoughts when you get old and creaky like me. BTW, handsome friends you have there. :):)

Happy Birthday from me too Ruth, you had a great day
by the sounds of it and your grandchildren will talk about
it with you for ages, so you get to live it over.

Mike.
