Another orbit around the sun completed.....

It's my 67th. Orbit mostly stable, orbiter a little more wobbly, but OK.

The trouble with birthdays is, you have to have a lot of them to live a long time.......

Just heard that the 3 oldest people in the world are women 116, 115, 114.
You share your birthday with the 114 year old lady!

Happy Birthday
Let me add that those of us born this time of year know that Mom and dad had a good Christmas season the year before.

One landing leg is damaged (probly beyond repair) but still usable. Other appendages a little creaky, but within normal parameters. Internal systems seem to be working normally and holding up well; internal fluid pressure is well within acceptable range, but tends to rise a bit when a Felon comes on the screen--sure you know how that goes. Does show a noticeable build-up of pesky,, um, "space debris" around the middle..... All in all, the ol' guy is holding up pretty well. Probly good for a few more orbits, if no asteroids come in contact.
