Tony, how nice to see someone else remember that "Saint" Valentines Day, is just that, a Christian holiday adopted by the secular world. Man ..... the price of flowers is outta control, isn't it?
I have a very interesting day planned Saturday. My 4 (yes, 3 daughters and their beautiful MOM makes FOUR) girls will accompany me to dinner for the celebration!
It's not actually a "date" date with Mom, but HEY - it's a start ! (sigh)

I gotta give you credit, Dave. You have dogged determination! Best of luck on your non-date my friend. I had three jobs today. Two St. Valentine parties at nursing homes almost 200 miles away, and my regular supper club thing. I left the house at 6:30 a.m. and just got in at 12:30 a.m. the NEXT day. Time for some shut-eye.

So... where did you sleep?

Ah yes...I remember the days of double and triple headers! I honestly don't miss them. I love working with the kids at school, and I still play every single day. It's amazing how different my life is from 2 short years ago.
Here's a first - I'm moving my MAIN kb into my studio! I usually have a skeletal setup at home, and my road gear lives in the car, but in a few hours....the PA800 will rest comfortably atop my Kentucky RHODES! Now, I'm sure to be spoiled ny that combination. So, tomorrow's the unofficial Saint Valentine's day for me ..... (fingers crossed)....wish me luck!

Hey, Dave, hurry back to Kentucky! Your prospective Kentucky "filly" still has two teeth left! And she's READY! She just broke up with the UK football team! Plus, if you get here the first week of the month she'll still have some public assistance money and a few food stamps left! GOOD TIMES!
First job on Valentine's Day was at Country Cookin'. They were nervous and asked if you were back in town. Your "all you can eat" attempt last time almost put them in the poor house. And, they ran out of clean plates.
I know you do the Kentucky Rhodes proud! Say hi to the kids at school for me!

I slept from 1:00 a.m. until now - 10:00 a.m. this morning. I think I'm caught up now! It was hard staying awake on the drive back during the afternoon. I stopped a couple of times for coffee and fresh air! I won't try to do such a tight schedule again. DonM

You guys make me feel like a slacker. I had one night job. Got home at 11pm, watched a Batman movie, went to bed at 1:30 and didn't open my eyes again till 10:30 this morning. Eddie
