Extra special gift from mom!

[JIM]

8-)I recieved an extra special Carpenters gift from mom this June!

While mom was going through some long forgotten boxes, she came upon the ticket stub from the Carpenters concert we attended in 1971!

I was seated in section 7 floor level, row 4, seat 1! Price***************$5.OO! Can you imagine? I would pay $5.000 to see it now without a dought. Although I was 8 in 71, I can still remember how excited I was.

All my best memories, come back clearly to me, some can even make me cry. Just like before, its yesterday once more.

Wow Jim, what a treat that must have been, to know your mom found your ticket stubs, and where you sat, etc. A very nice birthday surprise.

Where did you see them in '71? As you know, that's the same year I saw them in Sedalia, MO - so the pics I have posted in our picture section were of that same year. How cool is THAT? I, however, was already 17. Making me feel old, buddy.

I gotta remember that, Tim, since I'm only a year younger than you!
My sister and I are currently going through everything at our childhood home now, and some of the things we've found do bring back some memories. But it is really neat to find that you and Jim saw the C's on the same tour, in the same year. Now, you two are regulars on this site. What a coincidence! Or is it? Random chance...

It's called Divine Order, Dave..ah, yes. I told you long, long time ago - we're all kindred spirits here. See? I was right, too.
