Happy Birthday Daisy!!! 60 is wonderful. I just turned 60 about 6 months ago. And you’re absolutely right, when we were younger someone 60 seemed ancient, but now it feels young (ish). Sorry to hear about your mom. I missed mine too when I turned 60. Though she did see that decade herself and I’m glad for that. I wish you a beautiful birthday! 🎂 Enjoy your little sojourn in nature. Sounds wonderful. 💕

Yes, isn't it funny how 60 seems old when you're young? I have decided that OLD is officially anyone 20 years older than you are. So, of course, when you're, say 15, 35 is old. Wait til you're 30 and then it's 50, and well, once you're past 70, everyone is old, including yourself. You are so right about how things have changed. It's hard to imagine what the future could possibly hold now that could be even more momentous!

Thank you Rose for your birthday wishes. I still feel 23 so it is taking a bit of adjusting. 😂

Oh this is gorgeous Daisy. Happy big birthday. I’m ahead you by 14 years but reading all your memories it doesn’t feel that much.

I think remembering those close to us who didn’t get to an older age helps us to be grateful for every day.

Enjoy your trip and I look forward to reading about it!
