I’m spreading the 50th birthday joy of my brother Steve out over two days. I went hunting for a photo that I thought would be fun to include, ultimately choosing this one of Steve, our mom, and me from sometime in the mid-1960’s. 
And I’m pretty sure that’s our older brother Scott along the water’s edge in the background.
Given her hat, sunglasses and “bikini” (heck, is this straight out of Mad Men or what?), this photo may be more of a tribute to our mother than Steve, especially when you consider that any woman with three young sons can be looking this good. But Steve with his orange life jacket is looking mighty fine himself.
I certainly hope Steve is enjoying his 50th birthday weekend. I hear he is spending it in California with his family: wife, Deb, and kids, Jessica & Nick. I can’t think of a better way to enjoy one’s half century mark.
Today’s Prompt: How did you spend a milestone birthday?

Do you remember the book with ‘Do you like my hat?’ and the hats became progressively fancier? I can’t remember what book that was.
Wasn’t that in Go Dog Go?
I think you are right. Thanks.
It is hot here under the house.
