I used to read a lot more than I do now. I still enjoy it, but I don't
get to as many books as I used to...

Yeah - Safari does that for me as well.

LOL

LOL - I was in a play in November - that was a first for me! I meant
as a musician for years, and as a singer/songwriter for the past several
years now.

The one in Bartlett was a couple of weeks ago, but we didn't go. I have
fond memories of going there with my wife over a couple of years, but
really no reason to go this time. :-)

We also went to Huntsville a few years ago, but only once. It was fun,
but not planning to go back for that. It's just not a major thing for
us, for several reasons. 

We are planning to go to Superman Days again in Metropolis in June.
Looking forward to that!

 DS>   If I could get a financial benefit, I'd love to do one FINAL out of
 DS> state trip via Amtrak to the Duke City Hamfest in Albuquerque in

We've never ridden on the train - we've talked about it before,
but never did it. Our son lives in Indy now, and the train goes to
St. Louis. 

 JA>More interesting stuff! Thanks! I always get a ton of info from you. :-)

 DS>   That'll be a dollar two ninety-eight processing fee. Oops...I
 DS> forgot!! No pecuniary interest on ham radio!! (hi hi).
