1984 Víkingur Ólafsson, Icelandic concert pianist
Rock B-days:
1945 Vic Briggs, British guitarist [ band(s)/group(s): The Animals ]

WWotD:
benignity ― the state of being gracious; kindness.
QotD:
“I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see..)” ― John Burroughs, American naturalist and nature essayist
Personal Commentary/Observations:
I (finally) had a nice lunchtime walk yesterday. We must be on the downside of winter 'cause a lot of bushes are starting to put forth blossoms - purple, yellow, white. I also saw a small flock of robins feeding in the west end of Estes Park (where I walk), a male and female cardinal flitting, and plenty of birdsong. It's a shame I have to work this weekend.
