Younger Days

How can this happen?  Joan Baez celebrates her 74th birthday today. Iconic legends don't age in my memory. I recall hearing her sing at Wolf Trap--  barefoot, belting out anti- war songs. And there were other concerts, more protest songs, and words that told the story of that generation.

How can she be 74? She may not hit the high notes the way she did in the 60s and 70s, but she's still filled with fire.
