Latecomer to the thread!

Nice to hear from you Allison. We all had fun meeting and hanging out with you. Thanks for all your effort. Glad to hear that you found your phone. Too bad it wasn't in one piece. I'm gonna have to give your CD a listen this weekend. I've been too stupid busy at this thing I call a job all week!

Congrats on the Anniversary, John. I'd say your wife needs a new Rick!

Good to "hear" from you, Alison. Yes, I went back to work on Tuesday, with my mind still back in California. I went to work Wednesday, then Thursday. Today I didn't go to work. Ever again. I'm officially retired now, and with no more excuses to keep me from working on the bass book. How should I begin? Hmm. "In the beginning . . . ".

Congrats on your retirement, Paul!

"Do whatever you want, but make sure you're always doing something!"

...That's a quote from my 'healthier-than-me' 91-year young stepdad...he's been retired for 30 years!

Best wishes...Kenn

PS: I sure hope I get to see my Desert Gold 4003 in your book, whose photo you took at MARF last November!

Congrats Paul!

I thought your book was starting with "It was a stormy night....."

How about something original, Paul?...
