Thank you for sharing this news. I'm touched, with your post and with Claire & Consuela's interest...and Kevin's response. <br /><br />We're having a great time, although we're pretty tired right now - just got home from a rehearsal that lasted until midnight!

I can't ... oh man. I can't even imagine how that affected his entire life.<br /><br />I'm glad the folks are going, and are bound to have fun.

It reminds me of what you said about the Deez, and that makes me smile.Kevin O'Marahttp://kevinomara.com/noreply@blogger.com
