Greetings...*smile*I'm still trying to get the sand out of my eyes but wanted to poke my head in to say hey! Again, this weekend, Saturday kicked butt. Friday's show was solid but I found it to be flat in spots early on though I found that when a smile curled my lips, Derek was in the drivers seat. He owned the first set Friday. Maybe it was me...I never claim to "know anything" about what I hear, I just know what I like. It felt like I was being pulled up the mountain Friday where Saturday I was floating up with the energy of the whole band pushing behind me. Ah, such a beautiful thing. Little did I know I'd be training for my next walk Saturday afternoon! Went back downtown and a nice leisurely stroll through the outskirts of the Village, Chinatown and a lunch break in Little Italy. Boy, I needed a nap after that lunch. Belly full of pasta and a brain full of red wine! Yowza. No nap to be had as Melissa and Lammie had arrived and there was a stop in Lana's room before heading over to the Gin Mill. So happy to have met some of the List Serv folks. *smile* (hey, they're a pretty neat neighborhood, too!) I'll always feel comfortable in a crowd if I can scan the room and see GlennB in the middle of it! Thanks, Waldo.Karen!! What wonderful surprises you had for everyone. Spirit Wear..yes...your spirit is worn on your face with that beautiful smile of yours. Thank you for the gifts. It was a pleasure to meet you. Gailagain...I expected to bump into you this morning during my commute. Didn't seem right to turn a crowded corner and not see you!! Glad we met...hope I didn't say anything silly on the recordings..*grin*Horace, sorry to hear about the flight mix up. Admit it, you knew but just couldn't pull yourself away from the Big Apple.
