Hi Friends-

Happy Easter & Passover!

It’s been a couple of days. I’ve lost 30 pounds since I retired. So I am doing test (the colonoscopy was 100% fine) and the blood work revealed nothing wrong. So next up – scans. I think it just may be that I ate at McDonald’s or fast food anywhere five days a week. Now I eat fruit or omelets. I think I gotta start milkshakes.
My kids and grandkids are doing well. Kathy and I drove to Jersey to see my granddaughter’s play Spamalot. It was great. WTIT is still recording in our 52nd year. Johnnie’s death was a bummer, but we’ve marched on.

One of my best elementary school & on – friend was Bouncing Billy. He recorded with us from 1967 (he & I did the first tape) to 1974 & once in 1985. He was a cop and drifted away due to ours & such. In 2013 I emailed him. He has been back with us 2013- longer than the first time. We record every other month, and he and I pick a sporting event to attend on the “off months”. I am SO lucky he’s back. Takes a lot of the pain away.

Meanwhile Rock’s job is so demanding that when he can he just calls and I try to rally the boys in the band. Monday night it was just Rock & I and we recorded our 611th session.

I think of you guys every weekend. I hope to join you more. Peace & love-
Bud
