Another Birthday for my Pieter is Ending

 Pieter's 94th Birthday started with sunshine for breakfast!
That was the perfect setting...
It does bring you IN THE MOOD!
On Sunday evening, October 25, in 1998, Pieter was in a happy mood so he played Glenn Miller's In The Mood which was recorded in 1939

    Happy Birthday to Pieter - what a great age! I hope you enjoyed celebrating, with a little music too. What fun to hear In the Mood again - I used to love playing that for my friends back in the 60s (she says, showing her age too :)
