I called my grandmother tonight to celebrate her birthday.  She’s the sharpest, and most gracious 92 year old woman I know, and I look forward to knowing her for many more years.
Later tonight, my friend Dustin reminded me of something my grandfather (my grandmother’s late husband) used to say:

“Nothing, is going to spoil this day.” (C. Raymond Carlson)

It’s funny how things get screwed up in your head sometimes, and this was a welcome perspective.  More to follow on the most recent adventures…

Dustin, deep in the Selway-Bitterroot…
