So my actual birthday was full of connections. I was privileged to assist a senior teacher at Yoga on High in the final weekend training of their six-month Pranayama (Breath) Course. I made treats for those fellow yogis, who sang “Happy Birthday” and offered me a few gifts of their own. I connected with the city I live in. I went to Columbus’ Topiary Park, which features a topiary version of the painting, “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte” by Georges Seurat. It’s the only topiary park of its kind in the world.
I connected with myself, doing some restful yoga and a bike ride on a picture perfect day. I connected with the yummy thing offered to me free on my birthday, including Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams. Yum!
Here’s some pics of the connections I enjoyed this past weekend!

My homemade red velvet cupcake shared with fellow yogis. It was one of only 5 different treats I made to share.
