That last picture was from his last year.<br /><br />Happy you liked the post, Shady. Maybe when his birthday rolls around next year, I'll show the cigar logo (Syndics of the Drapers’ Guild) Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02155991693956178030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-635884225797829085.post-48452644065501315892018-07-15T07:06:29.947-07:002018-07-15T07:06:29.947-07:00EXCELLENT post!EXCELLENT post!Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-635884225797829085.post-33660937354376132422018-07-15T02:48:24.547-07:002018-07-15T02:48:24.547-07:00Hi Kirk!

This post of yours is an absolute Rembrandt! Now I have the urge to light up a Dutch Masters cigar. Happy birthday to Rembrandt van Rijn, born this day in 1606. Come to think of it, I haven't seen anything new from Rembrandt in quite a while. This might seem like a stupid question but, I'm curious, where did he van Gogh? Is he still living? Retired? :)<br /><br />Have a great week, good buddy Kirk!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.com
