Birthday fun

Exceat and the Seven Sisters, East Sussex, England -- by John Allen

While it's no fun having a zero in your birthday, we nevertheless made the most of it. Kim helped arrange for me to enjoy several of my favorite Bs: bassoon (playing Bach in Belmont), bridge, (draft) beer.  We made a weekend of it by overnighting in a super old inn in Marblehead: the Harbor Light Inn.  Added to that, the Patriots crushed the Bears on their home turf in their own weather (wind, snow).

I also wanted to share some photos with you from my cousin John who is a very talented photographer.  The one at the top, especially, is spectacular.  The one below was taken nearby during nature's icy grip early this month.
