I can't believe it ! I met...

Bernard Purdie!!!This couple walks up and stands next to me and she does a funny little thing with him. I strike up a conversation and we're laughing, etc. I have no idea who this guy is. Someone walks up to him and then I ask the question. I turned into such a dork!!! Saying stupid stuff like 'your the shuffle", I heard your interview with Rick and Eddie" (of course I spaced on the name of the show, sorry guys!) I'm happy that I didn't know who he was because I would have never been so forthright! I'm still so excited!!!

Say Cheese...

Love the big smile,,,it just about goes from ear to ear. I still can't believe that my camera died right after I took this picture, but that might be part of the reason why the photo isn't the best quality. grrr
Fun times regardless!

Awesome!

Luckily they changed a few tunes each day so it wasn't the exact same set 3 nights in a row.

I need to get T's address from you when you get a chance. No rush, I won't get to the p.o. 'til Saturday.

Tanya you're so silly.

Tanya you're so silly. BUT...at least you didn't do what my brother did to Randy Johnson (pitcher for the Mariners at the time). Mike ran into him on the streets of Seattle and he didn't even say hi to him or shake his hand... the only thing that came outta his mouth was 'DUDE'. He didn't even get an autograph...Hahaha!!! Now who's the dork, hahaha. At least you were able to talk to him...lol
