Now that's a great way to spread some cheer! Way to go!

Did you arrange it with the bell ringer or did you just show up and start playing?

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.

Thanks Ken. Yes, we had fun. He is a friend who is as mouthy and pushy as me and the customers thought
we were funny.

I found out he was ringing that bell for 9 hrs a day since Thanksgiving. So i went over a few
days for a couple of hours. Great fun. Plenty of 'passing audience' cheer. Better money coming in
"He said" especially when i took a rest from playing?

Yeah... you need a current membership to receive an invitation. Even at that... registration closed on December 15th. It's takes a while to prepare folders for a two-hundred piece band!

Yes, for sure. So, maybe, we drive up for a day and visit, sit in, stand in the doorway, harass you and Ron
Berry and give Terri a hug.
