Wishing you both the happiest birthday and a brilliant year ahead.

Happy birthday to my Mike, who would have thought all those years ago when we were diving together at Point Arena where life would take us.

From those early days and the campground at Rollerville to the life and farm we have today on our little piece of paradise in New Zealand, we’ve certainly come a long way together.

You’ve always been the one with big ideas, the problem solver, the one who finds a way. You’ve worked incredibly hard for everything we have, and I’m so proud of what we’ve built side by side.

Here you are, 76, surrounded by family who love you, support you, and respect the man you are.

We’ve had one hell of an adventure, and I wouldn’t want to do it with any one else.💙🤍💙

Happy Birthday my wonderful Michael 💙
