40th mini-Birthday Parties

So I called up the captain, please bring me some wine. He said, we haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

Instead of having one big party to celebrate the big 40 I decided to host small parties with a few people throughout the year. Venue and invitees will change but the celebration is the same.

Friends and family have brought me through these last 40 years and I am so thankful for each and everyone of their gifts they have shared with me.

So, if you get a call from me, please bring the spirit and be ready to celebrate 1969.

Stevie Nicks got into it about 1:20 into the set. Her voice is one of a kind and she shined. Mic rocked, "thank you, we are blessed." Lindsey was amazingly great on that guitar. Good show all around.
