Hey Robert! Hey kids.....yes, my 40th birthday party was AWESOME! I thought I was gonna faint too!! Thanks SO much to Coleman for the "tip" about being on that beach- it was the memory of a lifetime! And to meet all you guys...frozenbird, parrotprof...just further proof that Parrotheads are real good folk. After the acoustic set, which lasted almost 2 hours, Jimmy walked over to us. I had my sign that read "Welcome to my 40th B-Day Party!" He autographed it and I told him that I'm a Mom from Chicago and it's my 40th birthday and my 5 kids and I are HUGE fans...(I'm sure I was babbling!)...when he just kinda cocked his head and looked at me, smiled and signed my poster. Then he put his arm around me (!) and took this photo. As I started then to cry, he said "don't cry- you're on the beach!) and gave me a hug! Wow. I'm good now. I can die happy! It was so much fun to drink/eat/party with you all- thanks again for all the good wishes.

However, I think that BOMBMW's husband and I will forever have a place on the Jimmy Buffett Terrorism Watch List for the box-out we did on the crowd, the cameramen, and Charleston himself to make sure that Jimmy found his way to Cindy.
