Let's make this birthday one to remember.

69 years old (Born on March 24, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Governor Peter Shumlin! From leading Vermont as its 81st governor to your impressive tenure as President Pro Tempore of the Vermont Senate (twice!), you've certainly proven that good leadership is like maple syrup—sweet, steady, and always appreciated. Your dedication to renewable energy initiatives and healthcare reform has left a lasting legacy that's greener than Vermont's rolling hills.

On this special day, may you celebrate with all the enthusiasm of someone who successfully navigated politics in Montpelier for decades without losing their sense of humor. Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter—and fewer debates about potholes!
