Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday to my friend, partner, & source of endless motivation, K. Steeze! You cannot hope to stop K. Steeze, nor can you hope even to contain him; his boundless energy is a wonder to behold. His creative moxie is pugnacious & yet inviting. He's a filmmaker, a musician, a writer, & an impresario. He's more than a triple threat! He is also the fearless leader of Blue Tree Whacking, & amongst my dearest friend. Being his friend is a privilege & a pleasure. Happy birthday, Kevin!

Later today I shall be bound for (almost) the West Coast, Salem, Oregon, which will be the farthest west I'll have ever been. (At present, my most westward point is Portland, Oregon, which is mere fifteen minutes of longitude west of San Francisco.) I'm leaving the R.B.D.S.O.T.D. in charge while I'm gone, & I fully expect to return & find that The Secret Base's celebration of SKApril hasn't missed a beat.
