My brother Dave and I were born two years and one day apart, so this year we spent our birthdays together at his home near Blacksburg, Virginia. Along the way, I stopped to see a new addition to the Air and Space Musuem. For my birthday, we went for a bike ride along Poverty Creek near Pandapas Pond. On Dave’s birthday, his wife Paula put together a great party with Mexican food and plenty of friends from the area. The cake was a bullseye for both Dave’s gun hobby and my taste for chocolate, though we had to work to keep their three cats from taking a bite!
