RET

OUR TICKETS and the NECKLACE I BOUGHT.

THE LIGHTENING BOLT WAS MY DAD'S FAVORITE SIGN.

He was a Master Electrician and his name was Edward,

The bolt has an E in it, one reason the necklace is very precious to me :-)

My son and my nephew, two of my Dad's grandsons, both wear one too!


RURAL ELECTRIFICATION TOUR

I saw John in concert again, only this time in Mansfield, MA on 6/12/99 with my youngest son. It was my oldest son's 23rd birthday.

My 9 year old son and I had a wonderful time! And I think my son's birthday went ok for him...

The next night when we got home we called Carl in CO.

The 9 year old, RYAN told the 23 year old CARL, "Happy Birthday!" then went on to tell his brother,

"You have to go to a John Mellencamp concert!"

Carl told Ryan "I want to, I would have this time, But I was in Vermont, when he was on tour in Colorado!"


This pic was taken at Farm Aid by a friend of mine.

It reminds me of his song "Your Life Is Now".

Two months befour this concert, my Mom died. AND 15 months before that, my Dad died.

It was a very rough year and a half.

When John sang YOUR LIFE IS NOW, right in front of me, I started to cry. He looked at me and sang that line to me. That was very special, the song has so much meaning to me.

I need to remember everyday that my life is now.

YOUR FATHER'S DAYS ARE LOST, ONLY TO YOU.
