Today my sweet husband celebrates his birthday. We decided to take a drive—I called Nancy and Royal our friends who own the little store in Neihart, MT. Yes, they were going to be at the store and yes they would love if we came up bearing lunch and birthday cake.
Off we went arriving just after 1pm. Royal started the grill and I made one of Michael’s favorite meals—hamburgers. We had another favorite—cheese dip—such a healthy meal! And to top it all off a three layer chocolate birthday cake.
Nancy and Royal have a group of friends and customers that routinely stop by for coffee during the day when the store is open. Everyone was offered a slice of birthday cake and all pronounced it delicious. Even the Schwan’s man got a slice!
We, including Emmi had a great day. The drive up was beautiful with lots of color and it is raining—started yesterday. Much cooler and raining—bet that smoke will be a thing of the past after today.
The welcoming Mr. Pumpkin is in the yard of our local postmaster. Our little post office is on the closure list—we will see how that plays out.

ReplyDeleteGlad you had a birthday party for Mike, and wish we could have dropped in for a little of that cake.
ReplyDeleteFrom one Birthday Boy to another I say Happy Birthday Mike and bring on those burgs and big chunks of chocolate cake....10-4:))
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenery along the road...just love this time of year.
ReplyDeleteFour small post offices near us are on the closure list. While our town is quite small it is central to the others and if they close I imagine more mail will be delivered out of here. All of these towns have lost their schools and now their post offices are in danger...sad. Sometimes it seems that the powers that be want to obliterate rural America.
Birthday wishes to Mike.
