1. I’m more thankful to God. He makes oceans and mountains that I cry in awe of, He finds doctors at the end of the driveway, and He graces hearts to share and love.
2. I will never ever Ever EVER rent a full size car in LA again. Those tiny sports cars you see on TV are not only a luxury, they are a necessity!
3. When passing notes to someone like you promised another you’d do, and it is dark, double check that you have the right paper or you might find yourself totally embarrassed.
4. Louise Palankor is an amazingly generous person. Every one of us owes her a dinner, a hug and lots more.
5. Just because we could stay up night after night in 1997 without seeing many effects the next day, that doesn’t mean you can still do that 7 years later.
6. U turns are allowed in every state but Kansas. (But we still do better signage for freeway entrances.)
7. If you lose The Beatles, then lose Roy Orbison, then find The Beatles, don’t expect Roy to be with them.
8. Topanga Canyon has to be one of the prettiest spots in the world.
9. If you’re a passer on the street, don’t be surprised if you hear “Excuse me. Can you tell me what city I’m in?”
10. If you see a Southerby’s real estate sign out front, the house is probably out of your price range.
11. Remember to check pay toilets for toilet paper before – well you know.
12. I have a new favorite Cowsill. Tyler !!
13. Lynn owes me TWO adult days.
14. Bob’s voice gets wonderfully stronger over the evening. Even when I think he can barely talk!
15. Check what level you are parked on in a parking garage. It could be useful information later on.
16. Sometimes when placing a food order, you might need to check the waitress is listening.
17. Check parking meters after the first quarter to make sure they are working before putting in multiple coins.
18. Miranda has started a second career – modeling.
19. Sunsets may happen quick, but are stunning at Venice Beach.
20. The curvey sidewalks on Venice Beach really is only for bikers and roller bladders.
21. Don’t trust me when I say The Beatles have a star on the Walk of Fame by Capital Records.
22. Parking meters are cheaper in Studio City than Hollywood.
23. Bringing along First Aid products can sometimes come in handy.

Before The Event
The Show
I wasn't going to post show pictures for two reasons. First, I thought that with the professional photographers that I heard pictures were going to be sold. The Billy Cowsill Fund deserves all the funds we can find !!! Secondly, my pictures are NOT good. I was way back and I'm short! (Although I have a great zoom) LOL If only I had a tripod, things would look better folks. (Don't adjust your computers. Yes, all these pictures are blurry.)
However, since I see photos have been posted (check out these WONDERFUL pictures), I will add a couple.
Check this picture by Louise. Does he have Barbara's gorgous face or what?
