That he was BC-A!

And I miss him terribly. Spending those hours remembering helped.

Thank you, FSI

Bird would appreciate your birthday wish, as I do now.

Re: So January 6 from now on is Happy Bird Day.

I'll take that, Pat_B! It was a good day to celebrate, and we did it justice. Paying for it now...but it was worth every minute.

Thanks, CCT

If he had been here, he'd have been celebrating right along with us. In fact, it seems to me that the bottle emptied faster than normal...

Thank you food4thought,

I use the salt & the lime - Suzie does hers straight up ! The smiles didn't brush away the tears, but there were plenty of both each in turn.

Wiley,we smiled, and we cried...

and we smiled some more. At the end of it, through my hangover haze, I felt as if a great weight had been lifted....

Thanks for the hugs, Kabu

He was sort of part of Blogit, wasn't he? He knew it too - I would tell him all the comments on my posts, and he would smile. He was pleased how people he didn't even know could care so much.

Thank you, Nautikos

I'm afraid we hoisted more than one, but it was a celebration of Bird's life. We even had his chair at the table, played his music, and did much remembering.

Oh, and we did get blasted, Sam!

That bottle never stood a chance! 24 hours later and I'm still feeling wrecked. But it was a good night.

So January 6 from now on is Happy Bird Day.

In our neck of the woods, we had a near-record high of 70 degrees and sunshine all day. At night the moon is approaching full, and all the stars are bright, especially Jupiter. Maybe it's just me, but it was a great day for a smile. I hope you all have a wonderful Bird Day celebration.

Do have a nice time, you did all you could and now you can celebrate Bird's life.

A little salt, a slice of lime and a smile...

Sounds like a birthday clebration to me.  As you walk through the garden of memories, let the smiles brush away the tears.

You're doing it right - turning his birthday into a celebration of his life. And I'll hoist one in his honour and yours...
