Happy Birthday, Dad!



We traveled to Rochester this weekend to help my dad celebrate his 88th birthday!  Fred and Val helped us and as usual, Dad was happy with the spoiling we did. Ate great burgers and subs, cheesecake and homemade ice cream....all Rochester-style and yummy.
Went to the Rochester Public Market....same place I remember going to with my grandfather years ago. This time we did not bring a puppy home, but I bought parsnips and a lavender plant promised to grow into a beautiful bush.
And since it is springtime and Rochester is known for its lilacs in Highland Park, we visited some of them as well.
And, oh yes, temps were warm and unseasonal and who remembered that it had just snowed there on Tuesday?
