Anyone out there in Brother land know where I can get a poster of the live at the fillmore album, or eat a peach? PEACE!
(only act I'll call in sick from work in order to go see...well, maybe Rory, but then I'd have to call in dead)
NO MORE BUFFALO
James McMurtry
I guess we knew the cards were stacked
started out the best of friends
and we beat that highway 'till it quit beating back
it didn't mean much in the end some you win, some you lose
some you throw away
we headed South across those Colorado plains
just as empty as the day we looked around at all we saw
remembered all we'd hoped to see
looking out through the bugs on the windshield
somebody said to me
(chorus)
no more buffalo
blue skies or open road
no more rodeo
no more noise
take this Cadillac
park it out in back
mama's calling
put away the toys
don't chase that carrot
'till it makes you sick
what do you think you're gonna prove
just let it dangle
'till it falls off that stick
that's when you make your move
don't go chasing after shooting stars
trying to make yourself a name
you could joust at the windmills
with that old Fender guitar
you'd probably do about the same
(chorus)
I never thought they'd ever doubt my words
I guess they were just too tired to care
I'd point to the horizon
to the dust of the herds
still hovering in the air
somebody said it aint any such
man you wish so hard you're scaring me
and those are combines kicking up that dust
but I guess you can see what you want to see
you can keep on chasing what used to be there
top that rise and face the pain
but man they were here
they were here I swear
not just these bleaching bones
stretching across the plain
Well, I just learned that the password for the AMEX Gold Card presale is something real obvious.
Too late.
Better locations available via the "other" AMEX option that doesn't require a password.
Seems like I must be the only one looking - I've seen the same Row C loge and Row D lower balcony popping up all day.
Easymichael, as you well know, from Maine to California, a MacDonald's ( and others ) taste exactly the same with no local flare. Mom and Pop's go out of business because they can't compete.
Stepped off of a ship in the Bahama's and first thing that greeted me was the double arches. (ok, ok, it was a USCG ship and not exactly a pleasure cruise! I beat Slowhand6 to the punch )
That is one reason why I drive by hundred's of fast food and chain eateries just to park at the H&H and chow down every chance I get.
Hey there sweet family,
Sagebrush, you are subscribed to the Peach-O-Gram, and it was sent to you - and over 70K other fine folks 🙂 What happens to it after it leaves here is beyond our control ... and sometimes comprehension 😉 Spam filters, email accounts that are full, etc, are suggestions, but you might have to dig deeper to find out.
Take care and know that you are loved,
Lana
You may be right, TD. I sat at a chain food establishment today that's in a strip mall on a main road through town and looked out at the sameness, the other chain establishments, and the thousands of vehicles going by in each direction... Where's the "sense of place"? Is there a there there anymore?
Beautful photos Dell and Heidi!! 🙂
I just got an email for an AMEX presale of the Beacon. I did not receive a POG about a presale for the HTW members. What happened this year???
Well, I learned that if your AMEX Gold card is a Delta Sky Miles card, it is excluded from the presale.
Heidi and Del's pictures just drive home the fact of what America has now become....used car lot-nails-taxes-closed-closed-nails-Wendys- mom and pop boarded up-auto loan-nails-tan-beauty-McDonalds-Wallyworld-vacant-used auto.....
Heidi and Del...WOW! Gorgeous photos! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos, Heidi! We'll see you guys in May!
AMEX presale going okay for me so far....even though I missed it until about 15 minutes ago....too many kids playing in too many basketball games and a working wife and lousy experience trying TM over the phone.
But...just got center of row B of the lower balcony for the 22nd and 24th!
Row D lower balc showing up for the 23rd, but I'm doing that greedy good seat thing....

Michael! Jody! :glow: Hey! :wave:
Take care and know that you are loved,
Lana
What wonderful photos, Heidi! I especially like the one with the lighthouse. Thanks for posting them! 😀
:wave:Hey Heidi!,
The pix are awesome! Thank you for sharing them! :clapping:
Heidi's pix (some with Del!) are in the Places section of the Media Gallery, familia.
Take care and know that you are loved,
Lana

I uploaded some pics under Places, called it Norway scenery - after a request from Scotty - but I'm not sure if they were put in the "right place"... :nerd:

Thank you from the bottom of my black little heart!
