LIFE BEGINS AT EIGHTY

My ever young cousin celebrated his eightieth birthday on Sunday.  I'm going against his wishes by spreading the news.  It isn't a small accomplishment to round the bend of fragile mortality into the warm calm waters of your senior years.







 Carl Douglas Thomas talks to Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ingram, fellow
producers of local daffodils at one time.








Mr. Gene Goin and Mr. Lowery Hudgins helped him celebrate and enjoyed the day.






Daughter Cindy Wright manned the food stands.







Daughter Carla helped make the day special.

It was also flag day and flags were waving!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY C.D.

You're a very special guy!

    Y'all throw the best parties! And 80 is definitely worth a big celebration.

    I should say that's a big day. Cannot think of a more beautiful place to spend it, either.

    This party was at his house, another great location, and I was a guest! But I feel inspired to throw a party before the summer is over!
