Dear Thommy,
We were looking forward to dragging you around (across) the lake for another of your „marathon“ water ski sessions but unfortunately Covid put a damper on your visit this summer.
So instead I will reminisce about our last visit with you. Thank you for the Beatles Tour in the Repeerbahn. And especially thanks for „tuning up“ the tour guide.
The most memorable part of our visit was the whirlwind walking sight seeing adventure in downtown Hamburg. What a cool city. The new concert hall is amazing! Hopefully Brenda will post some pictures from that day.
I remember when I turned 50 and wondered if I was going to be able to fit all the things I still wanted to do into the last half of my life. Life has sure sped up for me!
You have packed more into the front side of your life than most people do in a lifetime! I hope the back half of your life is equally as exciting and that you are able to do all the things on your „bucket list“.
Have a Happy Birthday and I’m looking forward to the „next time“ I see you.
Love from Gerry (and Brenda)
