From the Basham's



We'll all toast your birthday while we sail through the Canal!!!!

I am so bummed I won't be with you guys on that one

We can celebrate a "bunch" of birthdays during our Canal trip on Legacy. Since it's a "milestone" birthday year for my Queen we'll start her celebration...we can have a birthday or two a day. Everyone can sign up for a "birth day" party day...could drive the crew nuts.

Belated THANKS, y'all!!

Just returned from my west coast swing last night and wanted to thank you all for the wonderfull birthday wishes.

Used to ignore every Mar. 23rd, but I guess I've gotten to the "you look great for your age" stage, so I'll start paying attention again. I cheated by saying I was 107, 'cause, by comparison, my real age sounds so much better!!!!

dellie

"Great"? More like "TOTALLY AWESOME"!!

Dellie,
you don't look great for your age...you look awesome for your age (or even someone 10 years your junior). And since I'm older than you I must know best
