For those of you who know and remember the band named "Pink Floyd", you might remember that David Gilmour is one of the band members. Seeing David Gilmour in concert has long been a "bucket list" item for me... though not one I ever imagined that I'd see fulfilled. David's last tour was in 2006 (it produced the wonderful "Live at Gdansk" album)... and it wasn't thought that we'd see him tour ever again.
In April, I will travel by train from Virginia to New York to see David Gilmour perform at the Madison Square Garden in New York City. This concert sold out in less than 5 minutes and I managed to snag two tickets in VIP Level III seating. My son, Jim (who lives in Brooklyn), will join me for this once in a lifetime event. When I purchased these tickets in July, Darcey didn't expect to still be around come April. But one I had tickets, she said, "I've got to stick around long enough to hear about this concert!" And she's still with me to do exactly that.
As we are now just over a month away, I'm working at putting together the right team of loving friends (and we're fortunate to have many) who will stay with Darcey during my 4 days away. She's so excited for me... and I'm tremendously stressed and concerned about her. I mean, really... no one can care for her quite as well as I have. But she's so looking forward to me taking this trip that she's got me believing that it will all work out better than we could hope.
Anyway... send good thoughts that it all works out. I'm so, SO EXCITED to be going on this trip...
