So yesterday was Beau's 8th birthday. Thanks to everyone who sent him email and wished him well. He (and Maggie) had a great day. Caren got him a cupcake to devour. Once bowled, cupcakes have a life expectancy of about 1 nanosecond in our house.

He even got an email from his brother Hoagie, who delivered the news that Beau is now an uncle! What a great birthday surprise. We'd learned a few months ago that Hoagie is now a Champion, and this latest news was definitely the icing on the cupcake. Congratulations to Hoagie and the entire Red Bay gang!

Meanwhile, Beau's urinary irritation seems to finally be showing signs of improving.

Cheers,

Ken
