Hey folks,

Before we pack everything including the laptops and the kitchen sink, I want to thank you for making this past weekend a memorable first for us and for Mick and the Canal Street Tavern gang. Three sold out nights in a row. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

We are going to be heading to the West coast with and armload of good Midwestern vibes and memories.

Bill, thanks for sharing 60 evenings with us and for all of the beautiful flowers. A show isn't the same without you. And Keith - for traveling to us and bringing with you the most gianormous, gorgeous bouquet I've ever seen! Michelle, we think you belong here with us. Thanks for blowing us away and for the great coffee from Maui! We hope to surprise you on your island someday. October of 2006 maybe? Let's make plans. Jack Finn - wanderlust raconteur, poet laureate of the Busted Lift and sweet soul - thank you for your presence and presents alike. Raw Silk, lambswool, and moonstones. Am I referring to your gifts or your words? Annabelle - for sharing your words with me. And to Amelia for having the courage to make a request, and for sharing your Sunday evening with us.

We can't mention all of you, but we appreciate each of you. On behalf of Linford, Kim, Devon, and Byron thanks so much for a great time.

see you on the other side,
Karin
