Let's make this birthday one to remember.

73 years old (Born on October 29, 1951)

Happy Birthday, Dirk Kempthorne! From Mayor of Boise to Governor of Idaho and U.S. Senator, you've worn more hats than a potato farmer at harvest time. Your leadership journey has been as impressive as Idaho's scenic mountains—steady, strong, and always reaching new heights.

Whether navigating the halls of Congress or steering the Gem State through prosperous years, your dedication remains timelessly inspiring. May your birthday be filled with laughter brighter than Boise’s skyline and joy deeper than Hells Canyon. Here's hoping this year brings you even greater successes—and perhaps fewer political debates and more relaxing fishing trips!
