Jim---

Thanks for the perfect match up of the song to the pic.

Every time I hear her voice and songs I can understand why David Crosby was mesmerized by her.

Stan

Ain't that the truth.

Whuzzat? A UFO landing on Riverside?

Looks a bit "grainy" to me....

(chuckle, chuckle, chuckle...)

Oops...

Better get back to that banjo quick.ly...

Seriously, from one photographer to another- a truly great shot, Jim!

Thanks for these pictures.

Thank you.

Heard you had lunch with the great one.

Wish I had been there.

Two of my favorite people.

I was just surprised that when I looked, it was a photo of fog!

Not sure what I thought it would be.

Gary and I haven't had lunch lately!

Jennifer,

Your great remark reminds me that it's been awhile since I've enjoyed seeing your dad at lunchtime. Are those guys back at the same location where they used to eat?

Jim,

You know where we usually eat and oftentimes when. The invitation to you is an ongoing one.
Our table often has a eclectic array of guests drop by. Just ask the one to whom you referred.

It's almost like a talk show, really.

Back to the chow line.

er...I mean, the banjo.

Gary,

I will tell you where my Dad
eats if you tell me where you go!

Jennifer

To wax poetic for you.

If we are not enjoying a sumptuous repast at some Lakewood eatery,

we do enjoy eating nearby; where the clouds don't get in the way of the sushi.

Although, each are indeed close by the other...

back to the yuet chin...

er, banjo...
