They brought so much energy to the performance that it could not possibly have gone wrong. <br /><br />Owen, it's been years since I drove through there, and so I'll have to go again.

I liked the plumbers' windows too, so many places just seemed to be total anarchy to me while we were there. I don't know if you've ever taken the road that goes to Baalbek, but there was one long stretch with junkyards and car parts for kilometres on end. I've never seen so many chopped up BMWs and Mercedes in my life !<br /><br />Hope we'll get to hear a bit of violin playing someday, maybe uploaded to YouTube or something ? Your new profile photo is very nice, your smile is contagiously radiant.<br />:-)Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759219732071327415.post-34060380573403720562010-12-12T14:25:58.560+02:002010-12-12T14:25:58.560+02:00What crazy weather, eh?

Yes, best to stay inside, far from falling and blowing objects.<br />Wow, so you're a violinist too? Nice!Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461925401870320466noreply@blogger.com
