david! I was wondering where you were…
I was also recently thinking about Phalarope, Dvorah, Kitty Kat and a whole slew of other “oldies but goodies” that seem to be less active these last months.
And yes, Happy Birthday to the Ojai Post – you fabulous portal into all that’s hot (and not) in Ojai!
But just think of all the free time we’d have if you had never been born…(nah, perish the thought!)
Big sloppy hugs and kisses!
Congratulations,
Ojai Post is making a wish
Have cake, eat it too
Happy Post celebration Tyler
wasn’t there some gathering discussed at last year’s b-day?
maybe if not coffee as thought before we could parlay a chat room one evening and have a post soiree online!
Thanks for creating a place that allows for such diversity and celebrates what is truly “Ojai”.
I first found your site when the fires were raging and it quickly became a go-to place for so many things.
I am honored to be part of your brainchild, your vision.
May you and the post live long!
haiku is boring
tell me, why seven right here?
Doesn’t even rhyme
Valley voices heard
Lively topical current

Suza,
You made me so miss my dear, now late, octogenarian friend Meik Laan! She made the birthday chair for me one year when I celebrated with them. Delightful!
HaPpAy BiRtHdAy! Words, images, sound but most of all heart.
Thanks for bringing us all together in yet another grand social experiment.
DK, goede morgen!
Ik probeer niet meer Hollands te schreiven.(I shall try not to write more Dutch.)Once I get on a roll it’s hard to switch back to English.
It was very nice to read your memory about your octogenarian friend Meik Laan. The Dutch are very big on celebrating birthdays!
Oh, belated, heartfelt — woo-friggin-hoo, Tyler!!!
I found you when the fires were burning as well — and salute your for keeping the homefires burning just a bit brighter for the last three years in this here valley.
Most excellent. Thank you.
