A day on my calendar with nothing written in the square, except a note to go to the Infantry Museum (usually closed on Mondays) with TP for a reception. He has been volunteering as a greeter mostly, occasionally a guide/person who will direct traffic in the area of the galleries. Each gallery encompasses a different time period in American history, specifically armed conflicts involving the Army/Infantry. I think he is usually the guy who sits near the door and says: 'Welcome', then answering questions, and directing people to where they want to go.
He's been at it so long, he expects to get a little bar to add to his pin that indicates a donation of 1,000 hours devoted in support of the museum. We are supposed to go to a dessert reception (and of course, BYOD - something sweet to eat) this afternoon, when he will be amongst the honorees for investing time and effort.
I've made the 'traditional' birthday treat:, but instead of making the giant chocolate chip cookie in a pizza pan like I usually do, I put the cookie dough in a rectangular pan, baked, and will put the little squares on a plate to take and share. Congrats to the volunteer corps!
