Hi arch; & gang
Your memory is great Arch, just a few MINOR adjustments,
John's father worked for May Rudasill (sp). Unfortunately he
contracted cancer and had to retire. They moved to C'vlle.
because John's mom was secretary to the President of the U.

The last I heard from John which was a LONG LONG time ago (he
wrote to find out if we were divorced yet! - Only for 2 years)
He was in Wheat Ridge, Co. But California wouldn't surprise me.
Keep us informed - I never did find out why he ran away from home,
but I have my theories. No, I don't think I'll share.

Linda,

Bill Little recalls that John's father was at the Ben Franklin store
in Orange which closed shortly after Bill came to work at WJMA.

IOK...I will take on being Party Meister...but need a committee...only
because that's a party in itself. Who is going to be around this summer?
Linda said she would cater (still on, Linda?)or do you want to potluck and
Phil and group will play (thanks Phil) and we need a party game meister (as
in volleyball net...for the pool or the ground...already have a croquet
set...pool and hottub...) and we need tables and chairs...I probably can get
them from my church, Gordonsville United Methodist...but could use some help
schlepping...and make it BYOB? We can provide drinks...and of course
balloons marking the driveway at Cedar Hill Road just north of the
Gordonsville Circle. What days can you'all come? We have plenty of roomfor
tents in the backyard, and even one RV hookup down by the barn. We will be
back in VA on June 28th so plenty of time to plan. Let's hear what you all
want and we shall plan accordingly. The Pat Watson Oak is standing pretty
tall these days.

Who you are makes a difference,
Love, Willow

Of course I am ready to party on or around Labor Day. I'll just need to
know the firm date at least a month in advance. It looks like Willow is
the Party Commander. Just let us know how much dough to pony up and
what we're going to do about food/drinks (Pot luck? Cater?).

I'm not sure yet if all of the Rollers will be in town over Labor Day
weekend; we may be missing Alex the primo fiddler. I should know

within a

couple of weeks or so. Otherwise, the Ryegrass Rollers would love to

play,

but would need some monetary incentive. My services of course would

be

gratis.

Phil A.

I am sure the WJMA'ers will sweeten the pot, but we must have Alex...She

played at a going away party for a friend of mine who was moving to
Maine.
What a special lady she is....My friend was brought to tears (good
tears) by
her playing. She played some kind of special Irish going away song...as
only
the Irish can do it. Of course, we know how good the rest of the band
is,
too...and we have the CD for Alex. Haven't heard back from anyone on
who
wants to party. Don't we have POLL privileges on our webpage...Maybe we

could poll the group.

And does this make Arch the Grand

-the -8th -power Teacher?

Ross, what was that throat stuff you always kept on your desk in our
little office? Do I recall you had it in a spray bottle, an "atomizer?"

Russ Roberts

Mark,

It's kind of like apostolic succession. Who was your teacher? Maybe
we can trace this back a few generations.

I read this and said "Whoa!" Well I didn't actually say "Whoa" but
anyway, I think I was Ralph's first teacher at WJMA. Does that make
me Cameron's Grandteacher?

Anyone know where Dave Blount, former newsguy is now?

There was a Dave Blount in charge of electronics at Sweet Briar in 2000.

Wonder if he's the same person?
