Thanks Willis, I'll make a point to check oout one of the gigs, what type of music do they play. I get a miniscule taste of how you feel up there this time of year. Althoug I get sunlight at work, I get up before sunrise (5:00a) to go to work an hour away in Sacramento and don't get home till after dark so I never get to see my beloved foothills/mountains during the week, but come the weekend everything looks fresh and I see it all with renewed enthusiasm (the commute bites, but there are very few well paying jobs in my county and I refuse to leave our beautiful town . . .
