the birthday cupcake

Well, it's that time of the year again, the time to seek out a high place, provisioned with candle, matches, and cupcake, and sing a party song.

I had a hankering to visit the Midstate Trail, and I decided on this view of Wachusett. That is Wachusett in the background of the photo, but it's hard to tell because it was so hazy.

It took me all of seven minutes to hike to this spot. There was only a slight breeze, which was never enough to blow out the candle. After devouring the cupcake, I went for a sweet celebratory hike, about 4.5 miles in 1.5 hours.
