The day Before....

 Memorable Automobiles from The Past:

I think some nice cars were born the year I was.

                    1939 Chevrolet


                 1939 Delage

For today:

Today, Jan 16, 2021; for years I never dreamed of seeing a year that did not begin with 19--.  Now I have seen the year 2000 grow to 2021. WE celebrated my birthday a day early so Jack Jr. could get back to work up in NC.

 

1939 Hansa

It has been nice to have my sons here, one is 59 the other 62. Sherry & I have a son who has applied for SS. OUCH!!! I can remember when I thought that was OLD! Now tomorrow I will be 82 My sweetheart says I am now officially OLD.  Of course the celebration included MY sweetheart Sherry and we were also glad to have Don & Evelyn.

1939 Lasalle

It was all a lot of fun, I am learning it ain’t all that bad getting old, especially considering the alternative. ;-) Okay Sherry, as of right now, I am still NOT OLD!

My Friend in the Nursing home Evelyn is 99 years Old, walks unassisted, Reads, eats well, her daughter keeps me posted as we can not visit her due to Covid.

Yep, I remember when I thought 50 was old! Strange to realize I'm now older than my father was when he passed.
ANYway! Run up the flag and twirl your partner round the floor. Happy Birthday blessings, and many more!

Love from 28* Coosada,

It's funny how we change our interpretation of being old. I too used to think that being old enough to get SS was old. Now I think about it and remember how young I was then compared to now. But we are only as old as we feel. Happy Birthday! Hope today is as great as your yesterday.!

Happy Birthday Jack. May you stay forever young and handsome as the cars you show. They sure don't make things as well as they used to....and now I'm thinking the same thing of age. I sure hope I will still be around at the least, to the age of my mother, 92 this summer, and with her sharp mind and health. God's made you guys and she to be great examples of youth.
loven'hugs from up north where it rained, got icy and then snowed. but it's pretty outside.
