Well, I gotta tell you, it was terrific.  We went to a house concert where two of my favorite piano players plus an outstanding drummer got together and serenaded us for hours.  Well worth the money and the drive.
Had a nice chicken dinner and my sweetie smuggled in a chocolate tiramisu cake.  Not sure how it could have been any better.  Oh yes, there were a few bottles of very nice wine as well.  And then about 60 people sang happy birthday to me.  WOW
Thanks for the well wishes.
