Lottery

Anyone heard back yet? any credit card charges?

Rachel and I (Andy) both were shut out…Ah well, C’est La Vie. I was really looking forward to lessons with Bub and Todd… I guess we will have to make the trek to Targhee!!!

I got my letter a few minutes ago. Didn’t make it. Been trying for 5 years.

Has anybody recived conformation on the academy yet?
I can’t imagine not going to the academy… :frowning:

Some of us are used to not going.

How are things up north Bill?

Great Tom…good to here from you…kinda quite here not much bluegrass. how are things in g-town?
I miss all to pickers there…

It was not what I wanted to hear. I guess I’ll try to see if someone decides not to go.

:cheers

So sorry to say and so sad… that it looks like we will need to get used to not going. Our lotto entry was not selected this year so yes… maybe the mandolin symposium in Santa Cruz will finally happen for us or like another unselected lotto enterer said, maybe Targhee for the 1st time. All in all our family is pretty disappointed that we won’t get to enjoy that wonderful time with friends and kindred spirits up in Lyons this summer, but glad that others will - but so disappointed for us.

Tom - is that you out there from Glenwood SPrings? Another time not selected?! I am sorry - we know at least 2 other groups of folks who also were not selected if that is any consolation at all. …Perhaps the ticket resales will work for you/us/etc…?

Linda (where is the icon with tears being shed?)

Hi Linda - Yeah it’s me. Actually Gypsum, just east of Glenwood Springs. It’s almost become a game to see how many times I can get turned down.
