Wishing you a wonderful birthday, Ruthie!! I'm two years ahead of you and the 70's aren't so bad! I just get a little slower and a little grayer, but thank goodness, my mental abilities seem to be the same. We've been at this KT Table for a long, long time and I cherish our "cyber friendship". Enjoy your special day! Bettye/AZ

I told of some of mine over on the welcome to AMY365 thread. Not much of great moment on the Friday ... but son and partner took me to a country and western band on Sat night. They're cousins - John P. Allen is the M.C. and gets his body and movements into it, and his face moves a good deal related to what he's doing. He played fiddle with the "Prairie Oyster" band for several years and recently has done a number of his own gigs. His sister, a doc, plays string bass and brother, fiddle, mandolin and trumpet were involved, and the young ones of the first two: the main female singer is taking nursing and quite vivacious - adds a good deal to the presentation. They attend one church where I go - the one which I went to as a child. The men's group in the other church had a tour of Labatt's Brewery on Monday night, so it's been an interesting weekend. ole joyful
