Happiness is a May Birthday

Why is a birthday cake
the only food you
can blow and spit on
and everybody rushes
to get a piece?
...Bobby Kelton

(another tradition that will end with covid-19)

I was hoping to take a nice drive up to South Lake Tahoe to see the tulips in bloom for my birthday. Unfortunately, Tahoe does not want any visitors or tourists until at least June. If you are not a resident of the area, there is a $1,000 fine, if caught. Between that and Tahoe expecting more snow, I will stay home and eat CAKE instead. These are a few photos from a previous birthday trip to Tahoe.

A happy happy birthday to Pam Knowler (@pamknowler). We share the same birthday!
Also Happy 2nd Anniversary to Meghan and Harry.
Happy birthday to you too!! Gorgeous collage!! Have a great day!!

Happy birthday Cathee! Lovely collage. I have to say that I have never seen anything like the local government shenanigans regarding controlling everyone and everything in the name of Covid!

Sounds like a wise decision to me :) Hope you had your own version of a very happy birthday The 18th was my great-grandson's birthday so we partied in the back yard with his Mommy and I.

Beautiful! Happy Birthday!

Too bad about Tahoe. Hope they're open soon. In a little over a year, I and 300 of my closest Harley riders will be tearing it up there. I'm sure they'll be happy to see us. Happy Birthday! Nothing wrong with being resigned to eating birthday cake!

Many thanks for your comments and kind wishes on my birthday! I had a lovely day at home, a visit from my son and neighbor, take out dinner, drinks, cake and flowers. I posted more about it on the 20th...thank you all so very much! It made my day even better!โค๏ธ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰

Happy Birhday CC! Hope you had a wonderful day
May 20th, 2020  
We love Tahoe also. We were scheduled for vacation at Squaw next week, but it has been cancelled. Wild salmon tacos would make my day as well. Glad we can still get the wild salmon.

What a faithless friend I've been not to have seen it was your birthday!!! It sounds as though family and friends made it a special day! Any day celebrated with cake marks a very special day, and all the better if there's a leftover piece for the following day! Happy birthday, Cathee...sending love and good wishes!
