Sparky, I'd be happy as hell if I were Canadian right now. OK, a little nervous, with us as neighbors, but I'd still be happy not to be us.

Congrats to Baldwinville for getting ADG to come to Newberry, SC again. <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15> Unfortunatrely we won't be able to make that gig as it's too close to a brand new gig in Harrisonburg, VA. Blundering, yay! <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15>

More things to be happy about:

1. ADG is coming to Akron, Ohio
(But why, oh why won't he come to the Rose in Medina, my own hometown 30 miles west?)

2. Like Terrie said, the Semester is almost over--one more paper to go.

3. I will be finished with Library school by this time next year woo-hoo!!!!

4. And most of all, WONDERFUL, BLUNDERFUL friends like all of you!!! <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/tiedye.gif" width=17 height=17>

Akron is a gig I'd love to go to but not sure if we can plan our 2 weeks vacation to Mikes sisters around it. To go we'd have to get one of the relatives up there to take us as I'm not sure how to get to Akron. Not sure if anyone can take us. But it sure looks tempting. Medina sounds like a good place for him to come to...

Well, it's official. We won't be going to the Charlotte gig. It turns out my folks are going to their condo in Nags Head on Sat the day after the Durham gig, so if we wanna go to Nags head, we gotta go the next day, Sat down there & then we get to stay until the next Fri. It's only about a week but my folks could only get the condo a week as it's rented to tourists other weeks around then. On the way back home the next Fri we'll stop by Edenton, NC & stay overnite cuz we wanna go to this religious play they are having down there thats on the story of Ruth & Boaz from the Bible. Should be a fun trip. I've never driven from Durham to Nags Head so that should be interesting. I can't whine about missing Charlotte too much cuz we get to go see Arlo 2 days in a row in Hampton in July & Harrisonburg, VA in Oct & 2 days at Alexandria, VA in Nov. 6 gigs in a yr ain't bad... <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/smile.gif" width=15 height=15>

Well Arlo was nice enough to add another gig here in VA. Either he loves us folks in VA or he wants us to do alot of driving. LOL! But we sure are gonna be busy in Oct & Nov. <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/laugh.gif" width=15 height=15> The College of William & Mary. Just an hr & 1/2 tour. No road tripping LOL! But it's right inbetween the Harrisonburg & Alexandria, VA shows. A busy week. & We have the KY Hillbilly reunion & the Richmond OctoberFest in Oct too to go to as well. I may not catch my breath until December LOL!

Whew!

Davy Jones did a concert at Colonial Downs on July 4th & we went being a big Monkees fan. It was only $2 a person to go & get to see horse races too. Had a nice time. It was raing cats & dogs when we got there & we had to wait in the car awhile. Fortunately it let up later. Some Monkee fans we know, Charlie & his friend Sandra & her hubby Tom & Charlies other friends David & this other friend of his (I forget his name) & another Monkee fan we all know George came. So we got there & ran into everyone & went to & got chairs & put them up on front row & hung out with everyone we went to watch the opening act & Davy. Missed the horse races due to hanging out with everyone. Davy put on a great show. He did some Monkees songs & some of his own songs & a song from OLIVER called CONSIDER YOURSELF. When he sang LOOK OUT HERE COMES TOMORROW & sang the part about Sandra, Sandra really seemed to love that. They had fireworks at the end of the show. When the show ended we got to watch Davy leave & we got to say HI to him & tell him we liked the show & he thanked us for coming to the show. We got to shake his hand. I won't shake my hand for a week lol!

We all wanted to meet him after the show. There were all sorts of rumours as to where he'd be meeting at. One rumour was he's meet at the table where the stuff on him was sold & another was he'd met at a table inside, & another one was he was on a floor upstairs & he'd meet there. We were all waiting downstairs to see Davy & he never came so Mike said he bet upstairs was where Davy was meeting. So he said lets go & he & I & David went. Everyone else in the gang all thought Mike was joking. We go up & sure enough out comes Davy to meet people. So I ran downstairs to tell everyone in the gang plus 2 other Monkee fans who wanted to meet Davy that he's upstairs meeting people. it was more like fast walking at my age LOL! So all of us int he gang start running up the step to meet Davy including going up an escalator. Charlie, George & a coupla other folks & I all were trying to literally walk up the moving escalator LOL! We get up there & find out Davy had left cuz they wouldn't let him stay there long the security cops but Mike got to meet him & get his autograph & tell him about me. Davy was sorry he missed me. So we all go downstairs trying to figure out where to wait to watch Davy leave out the front door & we lost everyone but George. So Mike, George & I are running around trying to find Charlie & the rest of the gang & finally someone said they had left cuz they couldn't find us or Davy. So went back up to the floor Davy was on hoping he'd come back out & we could meet him. Us & George are hanging out & some security cop comes out & tells us we gotta leave, we aren't allowed there & Davy was in a private suite up there & we cold be up there. We explained we'd lost Charlie & them & were trying to find them& we weren't going to go to the suite they had Davy in cuz we weren't gonna bother him there, we got better sense than that LOL! But to not avail. The security cop made us leave so we left & went to some chairs on that floor aways from the stairs & sat in the chairs & talked & visited. Later the security cop came out & said we had to leave or he'd call a state trooper to come & make us leave. trying to be a big bully. We explained we were just visiting & had lost Charlie & them & hoped to be able to meet Davy & the cop was all official etc Didn't care. Mike explain this is a free country & folks can roam where they want to. I had heard the 3rd floor was for rich folks anyway. So I said I may not be rich but I'm proud, white & free & should be able to go where I please launching into a diatribe about freedom LOL! The cop said no one was up there. I said I'd seen folks up there earlier & there were tv sets up there. He explained why the tv sets were there. Still I know I saw folks up there earlier. He said he wasn't trying to be a hardliner but we had to leave. Someone had lied & told us Davy had left which we knew was a lie to get rid of us. So we went onto the stairs. Can't make us leave there LOL! Staying on the stairs paid off cuz later Davy comes out to leave. So we got to meet him! He let me take his pic & a pic of him with Mike & we talked to him a few minutes. He came up to me & hugged me ( I was in opinch me I'm dreaming mode) & acted like he remembered Mike & I from meeting us after his show there last yr. I told him I was so glad to see him cuz I had missed him earlier. He said he was sorry he'd missed me earlier. He was nice. He said he was sorry he was gonna have to leave so soon but they ere making him leave so soon. So he got on the elevator which we couldn't get on cuz it was full & the cop acted like he didn't want us on it anyway so we had to get on the other elevator. We all went outside & hung out with George awhile & some other folks we met & then we all had to leave. It was a nice time...

I was using a photo editing program called IrFan to re-size some pics on my compact flash disk, saving them at the smaller siz on my compact flash disk. I deleted one pic that didn't turn out. Now none of my pics show up at all & I wonder if they got accidentally deleted. If they got deleted I am gonna freak out big time...

Wow, Cheryl... what a story! As for the digital camera's storage media.... NEVER work directly from the originals! Create a folder on your computer and COPY the photos into that photo. Then as you pen EACH FILE in your photo editor, make a COPY of that one aned resize it. When you are finished with the resising of ALL the photos you want resized, you will have:

originals on the card
originals on hard drive
resized copies on hard drive

ONLY delete or format the disk using the camera, NOT the computer! One never knows, but some computers can leave hidden files on the digital storage media that corrupts the card.

Thanks for the info! I had deleted a pic or 2 from the compact flash so that if I couldn't get all the pics on floppy disk before Arlos 2 shows in Hampton this week, I'd still have plenty of space for taking pics at the Afrlo shows. I am learning by my mistakes & disasters LOL!
