annap is now annamill-for those who care

I haven't officially changed my id yet, and Max said he'd be upset if I did, but..I don't see how I can keep a moniker that has my ex's name implied.

Oh yes, Honey and I were hitched Saturday at the best wedding there could ever be. It stopped raining long enough for us to have a beautiful ceremony on the beach.

It was glorious! Everyone had a fine time and I wish I could have asked every one of my Mudcat friends to be there, but seats were limited.

Glenn (Honey) and I are soo happy! (Gads! I have a husband) and we have a beautiful new home to share our happiness with friends. I can't wait til our next gathering. Early in September I hope. I'll set it up. We have to wait for Dick and Susan to get back. Can anyone let me know when this is??

We have been concentrating on the wedding and now we will be concentrating on the video store til it's done, but we can have a gathering in there somewhere.

Love, annamill

Yes, Anna, we care - and we're very proud of you both. Congratulations!

Now, during the transition period, you could call yourself annamill (annap) and then just drop the "annap" altogether when everybody's figured out who "annamill" is.

So, what music did you have at the wedding?

All the best to you and your new hubby.

They had Roger in Baltimore and a few others whistling "Here Comes the Bride." I've been waiting for annamill to post something so I could blab!

It was a great wedding, and a great weekend. The ceremony was wonderful - annamill had a gorgeous beaded white dress and Glenn (Honey) had a white tux. The best man had a black tux and a pair of thongs on his feet. The first dance at the reception was - don't know the name, but it was the one by Led Zeppelin that goes "If the sun refused to shine, I would still be loving you." Got to hear Glenn play with his band. Got to meet a lot of really nice, interesting people. Started playing music at around midnight on Fri night - don't know when we stopped. Played music most of Sun afternoon. Glenn's brother and family are all accoustically musical, and the guy (Chris?) who wrote a song about almost squishing Bruce Springsteen's dog sang that and other songs.

I thought annamill's last house and location were great. The new one is better - a real dream house! Thanks to Anna for an experience I'll never forget! May you both receive the the love, kindness and generosity that you show others.

Congratulations, Anna and GlennHoney! Sounds wonderful and I wish the very best for you, always.

I am surprised that annamill got past Spaw without some crack about it being so close to animal...**BG** Got any possums?

Jeri, thanks for filling in some of the details; it really does sound like it was just lovely.

All the best,

Glen
When Bill Sables came through on THE ADVENTURE we spoke about how Anna single-handedly took the Mudcat out of cyberspace and gave us all a living, breathing reality. It took a lot for her to ignore the frantic warnings of a lot of people saying it was a completely nutty idea to invite total strangers to your house. Somehow, I have an idea this was not the first time you witnessed the incredible gutsiness of this woman. The Mudcat is forever indebted to your Anna. Well I have not made it to one of THE GATHERINGS, but I sure hope to one day. In the meantime, I wish you both all the happiness in the world.

Congratulations, and long may your happiness last! And change your name to whatever you like, as long as you don't change your contributions!
Hearing about your wedding and that Mudcatters were invited to it actually gave me a rare moment of envy of those who live in the United States, not thousands of miles away. - Cheers, Susanne

Thank you so much good friends! My cup truely overflows!

Kat, my son suggested the name when he just off-handedly mentioned 'Hey Mom! Your name is Animal????'. Great sense of humor, my son.

Alllll kinds of music at the wedding. From Zep to Bert Hansell with night train, satin doll, etc in between. We had blues by RiB. Wonderful. He did the food song. Mrs. RiB is still glaring at me for requesting it. ;-) **BG**

Plus the Macarana..Electric Slide..etc. Some James Brown, 'Mony, Mony' by Tommy James + Shondells (original), oh, it was wonderful.

Thank you all for the good wishes.

Love, annamill (annap)

I didn't think this would remain a secret for long. Yes, Mrs. Big RiB and I attended. We worried all morning about the weather. However, it never did rain that afternoon. Since it threatened all day, Anna and Glenn's party had the beach to themselves. Later some took advantage of that to go "skinny dipping."

Anna and Glenn were as handsome as any wedding couple can be. Jeri didn't mention Glenn's black and white shoes, just enough craziness to offset the proper white tux. The party included performances by Bert and myself. We had signigicant trouble with the sound man (perhaps hewasn't too sound that night). He placed the mikes in front of the speakers for the PA and wondered why he got so much feedback.

We Mudcatters crept downstairs to play some music. Some guy named Max played some blues for us. We drew an audience from upstairs as well.

Anna, I didn't know I missed the Electric Slide. Damn! Well, ya just can't do anything.

Sunday Anna and Glenn put on a barbecue. The weather was not as nice, very damp and dreary. Anna and Glenn moved into their new digs three days before the party. Have these people no sanity!

Oh, but the house. It is located further up the river, but it has fantastic view with a far reach. Sitting in the living room or on the deck, you are so close to the water if feels like you're on board a boat. If we're lucky, Anna will squeeze in a party before winter sets in.

It was another chance to get to know some Mudcatter's on a more personal basis. Jeri, Max, Max's friend, Bert and his wife, and Anna and Glenn. And Glenn's brother is an "old folkie." He has this Martin that has clearly been a war horse. It is no museum model. The fretboard is gullied, it has cracks galore, and it's even held together by duct tape on the back. Still sounds great, but C.F.Martin must be rolling in his grave. To me, there is an attraction to a guitar that has been "loved nearly to death", perhaps because I own one.

I'm very happy for you both.

When I thought about celebrating in that corner of the world I wondered if Piancone's is still around? That's where I'd lift a glass to your life together, and to a new home filled with contentment, peace and light.
