Hi Family, I am so hoping that Bob and I will be able to make it again this year. It looks like I will have to get a big win at Bingo to make it though. We have had to make some big buck purchases this year and robbed the piggy bank bare to do it. Needed a furnace, a washer/dryer, a TV and also my damned oven went out on my range!!! I can't believe so many needed things broke down at the same time. Even my trusty mouse died on me alnog with my PC speakers. Had to dust the cob webs off our Visa, so I'm looking for a miracle so that I can come down there and perform the chicken song that Bobbie wrote to go with my yellow feathered costume. I have been looking forward to seeing you all again. This time, if I get my miracle and make it down there, I am knocking on doors to find the action people. Us older folks don't need much sleep. I missed a lot of those late nite bashes and woould love to get in on a couple of jam sessions with my keys. I know The Gallup/Bernard Duo will be planning a lot of extra curricular activity I won't want to miss. Here's < ME >hoping. Idamarie
