The other day, my son and his two sons were visiting, and we went to Santa Monica pier. There is a sign on the pier that says "Route 66".
I thought it might be fun to have a picture of me in front of the sign, since I turn 66 today. But I decided against it because below the "66" it says "The end of the line."
Yesterday, I came to Orange County, to visit my other grandchildren, and to celebrate my birthday. I was lifting my five-year-old granddaughter out of her car seat, and I noticed she was heavier than I expected.
I fake-groaned and told her she was "such a big girl now," or else it was because I was so old.
"How old are you Papa?" she asked.
"I'm older than Santa!" I said. She giggled and added "NO ONE is THAT old!"
"Thanks, sweetie!"
Gettin' my Papa kicks at 66.
