You may not remember me, but I graduated Norte Del Rio High School in Sacramento, a year behind you. I played clarinet in the Band for a while, then became a majorette. That doesn't really matter, but the fact that I watched Lawrence Welk and you from the very beginning and to the end. Public Broadcasting up here in Grants Pass Oregon airs the "Oldies but Goodies" every week. Still enjoy it!
The blogmeister is also the webmaster behind the very successful Welk Musical Family.com. I have been a fan of Lawrence Welk since I was a youngster (not too long ago!) and have watched (and taped) his show every Saturday night on my local PBS station, WGTE and sometimes WBGU. My hometown and current residence is Toledo, Ohio and in recent years, I have attended many of their live concerts and had the chance to meet many of the wunnerful music makers as well.
Happy Birthday Richard,

Hope life is good for you as it is for me.
