Consider a whole cake sent, John Henry. Sorry, but I'd have to use "Cool Whip" but it will be the extra creamy variety. Whipped cream just doesn't stand up very long. And cherry it is. Coming at you, now. FF
LOL Well, ok, maybe some fries. But don't eat up Ken's gourmet shrimp before the others get here! ;DAw, Strumelia, come on! I was the 6th person to show up and I'm getting hungry waiting for the 600th! :) :) :)
Sorry, no nibbling until we reach 600.Mo, that tall burger is even more unsettling than my Jell-O mold!Would somebody pass me those fries, please? Oh, and ketchup, too! :)
Beth, be sure to tell us when you decide on a name- that dulcimer is so lovely!
I like naming things. I name my bicycles, and i name my beehives and my apiary. I named my mandolins and my banjos. I named my Galax dulcimer The Merrimac after the Civil War iron-clad ship....but oddly i haven't named my beautiful curly maple Keith Young dulcimer! 
Can't figure out why.
"Time lag", huh? Sure . ...LOL!!I'm stuffed. :DOk, who's gonna help clean up the big mess here now?Stumelia, ref the party and sleeping on the job. In my defence I must point out that it was necessary for me to check that I was guarding the right stuff (just a little sip), and I think that you are overlooking the time lag between where I live and where the party took place. Where did it take place, and was I there?.........hic, JohnH
Here I am about 25 years ago, holding up two snapping turtles I caught by hand from our duck pond. 
(seriously!)
I'm bumping up Deputy Mo's old thread in his honor.... ok let's see some more now you guys! 
Hey Sue, I actually have a skirt in a fabric that reminds me of your dress fabric- and it's called the "Pinky Highball Go-go skirt" ...!!
Too cute, Dana!1975 Was a good year Rod.
This is me around age 4, dressed up as a princess for Halloween. I have my mother's lace slip draped over my head as a 'royal train', and she drew my eylashes on with eyebrow pencil. =8-)
Here's one from my teenage hippy days... (I'm the blond one) I think it was around 1967 and I must have been 13 or 14.I remember buying that oversized ratty old fur coat at the Salvation army for like $3. Right away my friend Susan got one too. LOL!
Ken, I gotta say, i always like it when you say "my Lady Sally". Sounds like you surely must be her knight in shining armor!

Well said, JH! And I would also say, congratulations to all the other 4999 members for putting the friend in Friends of the Mountain Dulcimer !
I second that for sure, Geekling!Wouldn't be much of a place without all the friends here.
And thank you everyone for your very nice words. They mean a lot to me.
...and CONGRATULATIONS to Hallie for being FOTMD's 5000th member !!!!
Only two members to go to hit 5000....
I'm sure that whether Rod is an actual angel looking down, or simply a memory in our hearts, either way he is right here with us and beaming happily.
I'm having my hair done specially, by 'Mr.Vincent'...
