Sorry that three of these are sideways. My friends accidentally took them like that.

This is yours truly in one of the three archive rooms at the Florida State archives in Tallahassee. I went as part of my college's history club. I felt as if I'd died and had gone to heaven.

I'm the only history major in the club, so my professor intentionally had the archivists pull objects that would pique my interest, such as Civil War artifacts, like the diary and letter below. I actually got to physically touch these with my bare hands. My professor used to work at this archives, and he's really pushing me to consider this as a possible dream job.

My best friend and I in an exhibit at a museum a few floors below the archives. Literature is the love of her life, but she enjoys history, especially old books and history.

Well I have come back from Greece to rainy London 3 weeks ago:sigh:. I am in love with this country, people, food, nature...
Here is the beach view:

Now there is property boom in Greece and they actively sell apartments/houses there, kind of every Greek travel agent has a “brother” who sells property and who can “help” to buy one.
I checked myself Athens property price https://tranio.com/greece/attica/athens/ and may say that yeah, it looks very attractive, and the country is a paradise, but I am not sure about the economy situation there, this really stops me…The holidays are great though, I do recommend.

AG - I love those pictures ! How cool would it be to work for The National Archives ? I would love a job like that as I am also a history buff.

Miomick - That picture of Greece is beautiful. I have heard the Islands are amazing.

Thought I'd show ya'll my newest acquistion. I've long been a fan of Dr. Z amps after hearing Joe play them and hearing him talk about them. So I had to do it.

I treated myself to an early Christmas gift in the form of trading in a couple guitars and went to Chicago Tuesday and picking one up after trying several.

It has the Eagles sound in SPADES. Amazing amp. I can't wait to get it onstage next year and play some Eagles tunes. It's probably my favorite amp I have.

I love the aesthetics, very retro so I had to post a pic here. :lol:

Good for you, WalshFan! I can feel your excitement coming through and am happy for you. I know nothing about amps, but it does have very retro, cool aesthetics!

Very cool Austin ! I am happy for you. I have no musical talent or training.:sad: Is that a old amp or just made to look like one ? Do all the Eagles play with old amps from way back when ? Please excuse my ignorance. Thanks.

No problem! Thanks. The guys mostly used old Fender amps in the studio and live in the 70s.

Dr. Z makes new amps and this is a recent one. They came about actually in the 90s. Joe first started using one on the HFO tour, so I've known about them awhile.

I promised I would post a picture of my visit to Winslow 'standing on the corner' when I got back from my trip. Finally, I thought about actually doing it! I was pretty disappointed in the statue. I don't think it looks like him at all, but I'm thrilled I got to see it. I hope it's not too big! I do good to post a picture, let alone resize!

You look great with the statue Brooke, although I agree it doesn't resemble Glenn :heart: as much as it could IMHO. Its a lovly place tgough - I really enjoyed Winslow when I was there

That is a wonderful picture, Brooke. I was also disappointed in the statue, although I think there is some mild resemblance. Still, I don't regret my visit to Winslow though even if I was not at all impressed with the Standin' On the Corner Foundation for several reasons.

Great picture, Brooke! Like everyone else, I don't think the statue shows a great resemblance. I'm happy you got the photo op though!

Thank you! I'm so glad I got to go! It's a nice town and I'm glad they honored Glenn along with Jackson!
