Whole Lotta Love~!

CONGRATULATIONS ELEANOR DUFFY!

The Eagle Rock Chamber will be honoring our Ms. Duffy (and that's MS with a lot of class) this Saturday at their annual installation dinner. Eleanor is a great friend along with her daughter Mary Duffy-Petersen. Ms. Duffy has done many things for Eagle Rock and has been big supporter of many of our elected officials hosting wonderful events at her beautiful home throughout the years. I have lived in Eagle Rock since 1980, Eleanor was always been involved and helped make Eagle Rock what it is today. I have found memories of her, we miss seeing her at Colombo's... it's just not the same without you darling. Eleanor, we love you, you are an angel, congratulations from Ronn and I.

THOSE WERE THE DAYZ!





Miss Trudi and myself... Good gosh! Someone is trying to burn me with their cig! I think that is my friend Dan as that shirt sleeve looks familiar : )~ This picture I believe was taken fall of 1977 by our world famous punk photographer Jenny Lens... it was behind the Pussy Cat Theater on Hollywood Blvd. (alley where the Masque was).

Lastly I want to the the "Beav" Rachel Braver, she was a God sent as I had a cold the last few weeks and she was kind enough to give me her meds to get better!!!! Now that's a GREAT friend. Of course I didn't rag her, but I really wanted some of Sara's Matzah Ball Soup! CAN YOU HEAR ME SARA!!!!!!!

OK that’s it for today. It’s raining and I am about to make myself comfortable and put it down for the evening.

Peace
Mandog!
