Ok, so I hide my birthday from everyone. It's not a big deal to me, and well, the facebook thing involves a few hundred birthday wishes from people who are more acquaintances than friends. It just seems a little disingenuous when its announced by facebook because you posted it there. So I don't have it there. However, my old neighbor, great lady and great friend, made a post on my "page" saying happy birthday. Several of the good people out here that I play Frisbee with, Ted and Sarah, picked it up from last year, and somehow used my conversations against me to figure out exactly how old, and what week my birthday was. That is not disingenuous. It's extremely nice....and they would try to get the exact date out of me, in what they thought were not obvious ways.
I had no idea. It was a great surprise, here are the pics.....

| Dorina said....everyone kiss Ben.... |
 |
| So many great people....I could tell a great story about most of them, the rest, well its just waiting |
 |
| They think I'm a hippy....and I love that...whether I am or not |
 |
The surprise was...Dorina wanted to have a volleyball game at the beach ..she would light up the court and I would bring the light up volleyball. I was headed down there, and thought for a second that no one would be there, they are probably bowling or something....and then thought "no one invites me to stuff" for a second, then thought , I don't really care cause I'm too tired to do stuff on Saturday night and I want to get up early Sunday"...then...well this...
