Charlie's birthday would be Feb. 8, the Friday after next.  We are also approaching the one year anniversary of his passing, Mar. 17.  It was a Saturday morning, about 10:15 am.  This Saturday, Feb. 2, will mark 46 weeks since he passed.  It is still incredibly hard to believe he is gone.  He was always so healthy, always took such good care of his health.  When his mind started to go it took a long time to recognize and accept the fact because from day one he had always been brilliant.  Look at that kindly and handsome face.  In pictures, we see Charlie harvesting fruit on a visit to Italy, then him and me at Lake Cuyamaca in about 2008 or so, then me as I was in 1976, a surf local at Tourmaline, then a pic of Charlie about a year and a half before he passed, and finally one of him in a shirt from his beloved Stanford University about a year before he passed.
