The Author, painting the fence next to Mark Twain’s home in Hannibal, Missouri, in 2012. Had to trade some marbles and a yo-yo for the privilege . . .
Whiskey and cigars are appropriate, even before noon (good thing it’s a Saturday, eh?)
What do you plan to celebrate?
How do you celebrate, if you don’t plan to use cigars or whiskey? Readings from the men?
Comments are open for your ideas.

Winston is a “cousin” of mine, his grandmother is a great-great…grandmother of mine.
