Today is My A's Birthday

Today is A's belly bottom birthday! Happy birthday Sweetheart and I hope you have a great day in front of you. You are my one true friend, companion, mentor and lover. I am so happy our paths crossed many years ago in Saskatoon.

Last week when I was in Saskatoon for a business meeting, I passed by Grasswood ESSO which is located on the south end of town on Highway 11. I had an immediate flashback to the fall of 1977. That was the year I met you and I was in that "wonderful state" of love. I remembered the evening that you and I drove out the the very same station to share one of the station's famous cinnamon buns. If I remember correctly it was cold fall night but there was no snow on the ground. However, I do remember correctly the feeling I had. I felt wonderful to be with you. I felt "complete" and I remember thinking to my self that I wished that evening would never go away. I also remember thinking I wished I could have just "gone away" with you that evening. We could have driven somewhere, anywhere; just to be together. It was a good thing my 1976 Datsun was not a reliable car!

Happy Birthday A ... thankyou for taking me on a wonderful ride for so many years from that night at Grasswood ESSO.

With all my love,

Harvey
