Well actually it will be a belated birthday - mine. We went together in 2008 my 50th birthday and I told her that I wanted to go back for my 55th. But the next time I don't want five years to go by before returning!

OMG! I was born in Charleroi - Monessen hospital. I'm orginally from Monessen. We moved from there when I was 4 to Lower Burrell and then to Punxsy where I grew up. Eventually we worked our way back towards the Valley. My parents live in Smithton.

Talk about it being a "Small World." I also saw that you booked another day at DW for $50. Tink sure was looking over your shoulder clapping

Nancy D - Thanks for the welcome! We really haven't decided if we are going in costume or not. I'm not one to go all out but may be I could buy tiara and go as a "princess" who knows. I am looking forward definitely to the F&W festival. My favorite channel is the Food Network so you could say I am a foodie! laugh

laugh That is a great idea Cookie Crumbler. My friend absolutely loves, loves, loves Bobby Flay and Guy Fieri is mine. I'd have to find a blond spikey wig, though (I have the sunglasses covered) laugh
