Here It Comes Again

Sunday, March 1, my birthday rolls around again. It reminds me that the last birthday I celebrated with family was when I turned 60, and that was the year Martin died. I don’t mind not celebrating; just the memories keep flying past and reminding me of each year that passes. In the photo is a gathering of Latvians at a place in Connecticut where parents could rent rooms and get out of the city during the summer for their kids. I am the little munchkin in pink sitting in my mom’s lap, and my grandmother, Mom's mom, is sitting next to us.

@DianneN it was near a highway, and across there was a beach. I believe it was Westbrook. ,

@RasmaSandra I know Westbrook very well. It’s all built up now. They have a place called Water’s Edge with great restaurants, places to buy, music, etc. I go there a lot and sometimes go just for a massage. You can look it up online.

@DianneN some of the people who owned this property still live there. The daughter of the owner is now 78.Their address was Boston Post Road. My parents stopped taking me there when I got to be 5 because they were afraid I might run out on the passing roadway and get hit by a car so they found a Latvian summer place in the woods in the Catskill Mountains.

Actually that's a very good point.
Many are not as fortunate as to be able to remember

Isn't it annoying how birthdays keep coming every year? You'd think we could get by without having so many of them. 
That's a very nice photo. If I didn't know better, I'd swear some of them are my family.

@DaddyEvil it's like your birthday comes and taps you on the shoulder and suddenly you realize another year has gone by in your life. Along with my present mood, it is just right that this is a rainy weekend.

It's the 28th of February here so I'd like to send my greeting in advance just in case my Sunday would be very busy and I couldn't be here. Happiest birthday!
That's such a lovely photo and you look so cute in pink.

@toniganzon pink was my favorite color. It's almost unimaginable that February has ended and tomorrow is March.
