JudgeG is "Mellowing" Picture Added

Tommorow, September 21, JudgeG turns 60. Now he will have excuses for such things as drooling, flatulence, etc. I just thought some here might like to know.

My daughter took him out to dinner last night as an early celebration. Here they are. He's doing OK for an old guy huh??????

I knew the Judge just had to be older than I but never thought the disparity would amount to well over a month!!

Happy Birthday Ernest!

BTW - Tomorrow is also my eldest son's birthday.

Happy birthday, Ernest... and many, many more...
that's funny Ann , but that poor bloke needs to grow up abit to represent our buddy, JudgeG!

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Happy Birthday, Judge! I'm a year and a month behind you on the 60th. What's nice, though, is my son and daughter, when I told them I'd be 59 in October, didn't believe I was going to be that old! Gotta love kids like that.

I thank you folks for your kind wishes. I had a great birthday supper with 1115 and wife, Lee Davenport (another vet of the Selous) and wife, my two daughters, my local gunsmith, my wonderful mother and my brother (who has a great cabin in Alaska so I'm always kind to him). We had duck, buffalo, red snapper, scallops, shrimp, lamb, great beef, grouper... and I don't know what else. Good wine, some great single malts and sweets... An evening worthy of 60 years of burning the candle at both ends (and ending most of that foolishness? Yeah, you bet!). I just wish my friends on AR could have joined us. Maybe on my 70th? Send your deposit now.

You sure had a good birthday party. I hope you have recovered from that big party by now. You can sit back, relax and start planning the next 60 years. May there be many successful hunts in the comming years
