Happy 60th Robert!

Sixty years ago today, the Rosenberg trial was just coming to an end; houses cost about $9000 and the Lone Ranger was popular on the radio.  And your mother was about to give birth to her first child!  I can imagine their excitement and anticipation. 

I Love Lucy hadn't been broadcast quite yet but would premier later that year.  Super glue and power steering were invented in 1951.  Robert and power steering aging together...........both seem to be doing well!  Oddly enough, Libya was in the news then too as it gains independence from (wait for it) Italy!  I'm guessing Thomas is the only one that might have known that little tidbit.


Robert and Kathleen together then and now!
Special wishes for a Happy Birthday tomorrow Robert!
