Mrs. Jim and I have had a couple or more.
My happy cars are my Mustangs.

Last words here, all our cars were bought used. Mrs. Jim and I have never purchased a new one since we have been married. We were in education you know, retired now.

Happy Birthday Sis! Happy Birthday Lois!

I remember when I turned 70, I wanted to run away. I had told Mrs. Jim and started to make my plans.
Of course I would come back in two weeks (I promised Mrs. Jim that).
About that time Karen's friend decided she couldn't run the New York City Marathon and so she invited us to come with her instead. ( And I hadn't even decided where to run away to yet!)
So I ran away to New York City alone with Mrs. Jim and Karen. We had fun.
I am glad you are running away to Minnesota and are enjoying yourself. Of course you did have to take the "Old F**t" along just like I had some of my nice family with me.
Bet it is fun, I know you are enjoying watching all those ships. That beats watching airplanes a long way!
Once more,
HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS! HAPPY 70 LOIS!
Jim's note: When Lois turned 65 I had hacked into her Yahoo e-mail account and sent (from her) everyone on her mailing list a notice and sob story that she wouldn't get very many cards for this momentous birth anniversary.
I don't have her password or the addresses any more so this will have to do.

Ruby (Red) Tuesday — My __________(??) last year — A quiz today
(it would be RED)
If you think you know what it could be,
please tell me along with your comment.
[large view] [super sized]
There are a few hints here and there. They are very subtle,
not obvious at all.

The best hint is on the left above.

Note: The Jim Bunch was eating.
After our order came, that is.
Click the Ruby Tuesday button if you want to play Mary's hidden object too.
I think I have found her hidden red object (see my first comment) but I could be wrong.

Update:
OK guys, you all did really good here. Thank you for telling what you saw and didn't see. Mojo and Bobbie had it right.
Yes, missing are candles for my cake (Mojo). There was none to be found at the orphanage where we were.
Also missing from the pictures was the piñata (Bobbie). We did have them but I don't really like the way my picture turned out doing that so I left it on my computer.
This was last year's birthday party. We were helping at an orphanage in Guatemala and my birthday came on the 30th.
Since we will be there again this year on my birthday I thought these had better be here now. I may not be able to post from Huehuetenango, Guatemala, as I expect very limited Internet access.

Feast or famine?
20 Do not join those who drink too much wine
or gorge themselves on meat,
21 for drunkards and gluttons become poor,
and drowsiness clothes them in rags.
Proverbs 23:21 (NIV link)
