My son Nicholas turns sixteen today. And yesterday.
An oddity of his birth is that the state put the wrong date on his birth certificate. To be honest I can’t recall which day (21st or 22nd) he was actually born, and which one was the clerical error. Funny how those things play out over time (I’m certain his mother knows though!) We’re taking him out to dinner tonight, but I thought I’d reminisce a bit with a few photos of him that I’ve shot over the years. He’s always been interested in cars, so he’s tagged along with me on a few adventures…
Happy Birthday Nicholas!
Congrats, Nick! Thanks to your Dad’s inability to not take any foto of you and ’65E,” it seems as if I’ve vicariously participated in the last 6 years of your life, and it’s great to know your Dad, as I do. You are blessed to have such a great set of parents and I wish you *many* more happy birthdays!
By the way Paul, you’ll be interested to know that he’s picked up a guitar (though he’s dropped the piano)
EXCELLENT!! He can teach me a thing or two, if ever we get to meet!
Here’s one of my heroes…maybe Nick will dig him, too.

And he builds ALL his own guitars!
Then there’s Tommy Emmanuel, who I SWEAR has alien genes, ‘cuz a human can’t POSSIBLY play like this…maybe Nick’ll dig this Aussie!
