Anne,That sure was a lovely walk at the beach. If you're ever back this way it would be great to do it again! btw: Page 14 is where there's nothing to click on to move to the next pages. All: Until it's fixed, you can work around it. Go to the url and just change the page number from 14 to 15.

Michele:but Fran, how did you find out they'll be in Westhampton Beach?? I just checked the venue web site and don't see anything.  Okay, now I see it. It's in the OKP Store, under Tickets, as a presale starting on Monday. I don't ever check that page.  Guess I will now.

I'm sorry to hijack the thread - though I'm psyched for you, Anne that you get a nearby(ish) show! - but Fran, how did you find out they'll be in Westhampton Beach??

Cool pictures, Katy! I had to stop in the middle, though, to come back here and ask: Um, what did Sean do to his hair?  Well, obviously we know the WHAT. Do you know the WHY? Must be a story there. 

My family is also starting a ''new tradition'' this year. It's so simple, I wonder why we didn't think of it before. (Well, relatively simple. Getting everyone to stop what they're doing, pose, and hold still can certainly be a challenge.)Last year, we took a family picture on Christmas Day at my aunt's house. My mom and all

Sharneliz:Carbon Leaf, Endless summer.Sharn, looks like I was typing just as you were. And to think I was nervous about my suggestion being too far off the mark. (By the way: Indian Summer)

It's not really in line with the music you listed or with what Andi has suggested, but my Great-Big-Sea-connected suggestion would be: Carbon Leaf's ''Indian Summer''.I'd seen Carbon Leaf open for GBS two different times and really liked their performances, but had trouble getting into their recorded music. For some reason, I still
