Happy Birthday!

Yesterday was Kathie's mother's 84th birthday. Mom has been enjoying a vacation with us for the last few weeks here in Wisconsin. To celebrate, we took a boat ride over to The Landing for a birthday lunch/dinner.

The Landing is a restaurant we very much enjoy that is situated at roughly the midpoint of the Chippewa Flowage along a county road that bisects the flowage into its eastern and western halves. Last summer, at about this same time, Betsy, Pete and Henry (Clara was yet to be born, of course) also traveled there by boat with us for an evening meal.

We had casually mentioned Mom's birthday to the wait staff, and so they surprised Mom with birthday treats and sang Happy Birthday to her. I think you can tell that they are on the last "you" in their rendition. Strawberry short cake and carmel pecan ice cream! Yum!

Happy Birthday Mom!
