Hey Jen -- it's still looking good for me AND Dear Hubby to get to the PNCG . . . keep your lil' ol' fingers crossed, awright?

I've picked out some firecracker songs to learn, and I've started on the lil' problem I told you 'bout . . . 40 lbs., Emmylou, Justa Picker, etc. 'Course, if I have to come by myself, at least it looks as if Amos will have the job of being my chaperone (Lord and Ladies, protect me - not!)

And my darlin' OLD Amergin -- if you've still got that cute lil' beard -- count on me pullin' it while I'm there ;-)

All the best, Áine
