G'morning Gail - I'm SO JEALOUS!!!!! Yep, and Im childish enough to admit it too - I wish I could go with you tonight to the Blue Collar Tour!!!! I love those guys man talk about a room full of HUMOR and talent, they just seem like such good ol' boys, ya know? We saw Larry the Cable Guy in Richmond last year on Valentines - he was 2 hours of PURE raw hilarious talent. Paul and I were crying we were laughing so hard. When we left the place we felt like we'd done a thousand sit ups, our stomach muscles were so sore. I saw your post last year when you bought the tickets and even told Paul about it. We were seriously considering coming up to DC for it but knew his boat was due to go back into the water this month and it was too expensive of a gamble to find out he wasnt going to be on land for it. In hinesight, it's good that we didnt buy them - because at the time, we had no idea his mom was planning on coming into town. lol, it woulda prolly been kinda rude to toss the house keys at her as we were heading out the door, up north, huh? Have FUN - how could you not! Hugs - Lei Pssst.. and Ive met your spouse, he's a sweety - so NOPE, they don't count as pets.

Love the new NAME - it suits you, perfectly!!!!!! Er, well, NOT the "old" part, but ...well, you know what I mean. Pssst... don't forget, you're supposed to BRING some of that Logan Bread to lunch on Friday. Im really curious and can't wait to try it - sounds DELISH!!! Did we ever decide on a time for lunch? If so, this blonde didn't write it down. .

what's logan ? Something you make or something you buy? Have you lived at the Beach for awhile? I am from there and went to Va Beach High.

G'morning Cathy - I'd never heard of "Logan Bread" either, until Track starting talking about it. It's something he actually MAKES! (oh my my, a man that likes to cook AND bake?) ...and I went looking for an email he sent me last week that described it. I'll cut and paste that below...... From Track McCreary: "Logan bread...you've never heard of my infamous logan bread? My recreation of the high protein, fruit and nut filled climbers bread? Packed with protein and goodies? The recipe is on my profile, it's not so tasty that you want to eat and eat...but one two inch square supposedly contins all the nutritional needs for a days climbing. If I had to describe it in very simple terms, it's a fig newton on steroids that I make myself. I'll bring along a piece when we meet for thgat veggie burger!" Here is a link to his profile if you want to check out the recipe - I'm too lazy to bake it, so I'm gonna smooch a few slices from him at lunch! lol, unless I can talk him out of the entire LOAF? http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/members/profile.php?N=M1060572623 Track is a LONG time resident of the beach, I think 25 years, or more? Wonder if your two paths ever crossed? I've lived in VaBeach for exactly 3 years - moved here from Washington State, courtesy of my Lifer-Sailor-Dude, next year makes 25 years in! Although Im still getting LOST as I explore, I love everything about this place, including the wonderful friends I made out here on the Beach. They're pretty special gals! Have a great weekend ~ Lei
