Such a lovely evening! Thank you each one for your own contribution of loveliness. I loved Lisa's songs (and she's promised me one of them!) and Charlie's too. Kendall's stories and jokes, Kendall and Jacqui together, Deb Cowan's beautiful singing, wonderful food, and the welcoming host and hostess...Ahhhhh! I missed Sinsull, ranger1, Tom & Linn, Jeri, and the rest of the usual suspects, but such a luxury to have all that music just for us!

The highway speed limit was 45 where it usually is 65 mph. It was slick enough with rain and sleet on snow that most folks even slowed down to that rate. It only took me 2 1/2 hours to get home, and only the last 13 miles were white-knuckled.

I am thankful for music, good company, tasty food, and safe arrival at our warm home where my True Love awaits.
