Also, thank you for the explanations on the gaps in the other blogs. Apparently, my comments didn't make the cut either. Or, I may simply unfamiliar with the logistics of blogspot.
Adaline,
Welcome. Glad you are here. Were you only on the show in 76? I went there in 84 and stayed for 7 years? I am sure we know many of the same people. If you had trouble on Buckles Blog, it is 50/50 whether it will post. Don't ask why. Many have wondered that. Again welcome. If you would like to chat further about the blue show my email is:

Best wishes,
