Thanks so much guys! It is snowless, lol, but it has cooled off a bit. No beach today! But our beach day on Tue was wonderful. We did a picnic lunch, walked on the beach, napped on our blanket, had great conversation until sunset, and then ate grilled fish on the way home. I learned that there's such a thing as a black Russian and that I love it! HA! It was a fun and very relaxing early b'day day.
My best birthday present is that my daughter found a job! Woo Hoo! She'll be in Newburyport, MA, just north of Boston. I'm so happy for her! It's a load off emotionally and financially. It's a wonderful present to see her so happy.

Thank you all. You're making me smile. It's been a really fun day. I love my Friday clients. It's so fun to work with people who want to know and who want to lift heavy. I had a great deadlift workout too. Great morning!
Ian, I'll pm you with more specific info. I'd love to know my friends up there have her back. She's got some friends up there already, but you can never have too many friends! BTW, she's only 21 and she has a boyfriend at the moment, so I'm trusting you to be on your good behavior! HA!

Happy Birthdy Lisa! sounds like a great and well-rounded b-day!! What's better than good deadlifts and taking a load off your back by your daughter becoming self-sufficient!
