Look Who's....70! 60!

February brings with it a bevy of birthdays - too many to list, really! But there were two in particular that I celebrated this year - Joan, who turned 70, and Charlie, who turned 60!

Joan Paulson, Charlie Chalberg

These dear friends of mine are wonderful human beings, and I miss them every day now that I don't live in Forest Lake. Charlie, of course, is my "sweetheart" and once-upon-a-time landlord. Joan is my all-time favorite substitute teacher. Both are drinking buddies, mentors, and above all, friends.

Heather & I threw a birthday bash for the two of them in mid-February. In conjunction with the teacher's regular pay day celebration, we acknowledged these landmark birthdays.

Beverages consumed, wishes extended, we had a wonderful time, and made sure Charlie & Joan did, too! (Heather did the honors of cutting into the birthday cake!)
