A Request

Today is my younger brother, Matthew's, birthday. His job as a driller has taken him to North Carolina for weeks on end....far from his family and the small farm they run here in Upstate NY where we all live. If you were to go here and leave him a birthday greeting, I think it would be a terrific surprise for him. He likes to get updates from home on his wife, Lisa's, blog.

He is the nicest guy you could want to meet. Years in the Midwest instilled in him and his family that western hospitality and kindness that is not so common here on this coast. I don't think he has ever met a stranger....

Anyhow, Happy Birthday Matt, hope you have as good a day as you can so very far from home...love you!
