    I almost forgot...being a mountain girl I felt compelled to tell you the prosopography of us mountain folk..otherwise referred to as 'hill billies" is way wrong. We aren't nelipots in shacks. :) ;)

    I am actually from NC and have lived here majority of my life. It's a beautiful state with Blue Ridge Mountains and incredible beaches so best of both worlds. Asheville is great and I'm near Appalachian State Univeristy. Lots of artists, musicians, forward thinkers. And too much development because of the beauty. Having said that we have high taxes and current political leaders are a bit of an embarrassment. But we're working on changing that :)Come check it out..

    How is NC? That has come up in conversation a lot lately - and is currently on my short list in my daydreams of peregrination.

    Maybe it's a California thing, but quite a few of my friends' wedding ceremonies have been performed by some other friend who went on the internet and got "ordained" as a Universal Life minister.

    Blue skies, not a wisp of wind and forecasted to be in the mid-70's. As soon as I quaff my iced coffee it's off on a run with my trusty canine companion Kai. Although there's plenty of sails to patch and rails to shine, it looks like the office beckons today. It happens. Big event tomorrow, so rehearsal is needed. Hoping to have a Watkins Glen kinda day. . . . Have a good one, everyone!

Mr. Mayor , I think it would be way cool to see if the DD could find each other in Ca. Does anyone else feel this way? Long lost brothers and sisters of another Mother meeting for the first time. I know it will be a push but start the bus cause I riding to the last stop

That's a great call, dude, and there are 16 SD'ers attending SC shows. Klang man, you gotta be the chairperson nominee to head the SC M&G Committee. Can I get a second on that please?

Happy weekend to all. Hey spascarella, I would weigh your level of timing-stress against cost of rental car. Whichever provides you with greater peace of mind... go for it. My two pennies.

Agree with Stella- rental so you don't goMental , but if you don't need it for all the days, see if you can drop it off In Santa Clara once you get in town.

...about a meet and greet. I will start checking around the area for a place we can do a beforehand something or other. Most likely informal I would presume. Let me think on it and start looking. Maybe as mayor I can form a sub committee and delegate to get some local (or more local) help. I am 2 1/2 hours away and haven't been to Levi's yet so I'm not too familiar with what's around there. I have been to Great America amusement park many years ago (before there was a Levi's) and it is right next door. There should be someplace close by, plus I have a hotel room 1 mi. away. We'll figure something out. Alright Sheriff, looks like we have another spreadsheet column. - your Mayor this message is officially endorsed by Klangstone Productions. Ltd

YEAH BABY !!! Now, close that bathroom window :-) Thank you, brotha - now the week is officially underway !!!! And the three men I admired most, the father, son & the holy ghost, they caught the last train for the coast... Heard that amazing tune again yesterday - amazing how after not hearing a song for years and years, you remember EVERY word. Incredible music and lyrics put together there regarding "the day the music died." And again, I digress... Happy Monday gang !!!
