Happy Birthday, Dad!

Huston turns 76 today. He worked in his shop today for the first time since he had surgery last December to repair an aneurysm on his aorta. He's built bird houses and feeders since he retired from farming, and while I'm definitely prejudiced in his favor, he does a mighty fine job at his craft.

I hope you have many more years to do this, Dad. I'd love to see you be able to give your great-grandchildren a bird feeder, directly from your hands to his or hers.
