I joke around that once you've reached this point in Life celebrating a birthday for just one day is not sufficient to give thanks for all the things you've dodged, missed by chance, worked through, survived, or came out on the other side of miraculously that should have killed you. Maybe with a week of thanks, that would be enough time to "celebrate" a birthday once you've gotten around to seeing your sixth decade on this rock.
So, I''ll be celebrating my birthday all week folks.
And maybe I'll go for a ride, maybe not. It is Winter here, after all, and things are pretty sloppy at the moment. We'll see if I can work it out.
Finally - Thank you all! I appreciate you stopping by the blog after all these years and reading my writin'. I hope that you have an awesome day and get a ride in as well.
Let me be the first to say Happy Birthday! Hope you have a good one. Thanks for all you do.
ReplyDeleteI like your perspective on how long to celebrate. Keep enjoying life and finding satisfaction in each day!

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!!! I have a couple co-workers who celebrate 'Birthday Month'.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Mark! Been enjoying this daily blog for a very long time. I hope you enjoy your week, and do something that makes ya smile!
ReplyDeleteWahoo! Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteOne would think a petition should be made to GcHoF to make this day a national Gravel Holiday. Just saying we could have Gravel Christmas in January. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!! Stay safe on the ice out there today and enjoy!
ReplyDelete63, I'm amazed. Blessing.
ReplyDeleteHappy 63rd! Love the blog and your insights into the gravel scene. And as someone who has a BIG birthday (65) coming soon, loving the idea of taking a week to celebrate. Hope it's a great week
ReplyDeleteI wish you all the best for your special day. As a longtime reader, I have to say that the Guitarted blog has grown on me. I've been able to pick up lots of inspiration over the years. Not just bike-specific ones. Thank you very much for that.
ReplyDeleteMany, many, happy returns of the day!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Birthday Mark! Thank you for your writings and what you do for the cycling community! May you enjoy many miles and adventures for many years to come!
