Living in Lafayette, Louisiana, I am the Systems Administrator for Advancement Services for the University of Louisiana at Lafayette - GEAUX CAJUNS!
UL is hosting Drums at Cajun Field on July 20th - hope to see ya'll there!
That was my attempt at Cajun!...was asking if you plan on making the "Southern Crawfish Boil" ...you look younger than in 83!...must be the "Louisiana" in u....Awesome pics.....will post a few soon....Luv ya "Cajun Girl"....
Well I am glad to hear that you root for the black & gold!!
As for me, I was an alternate cymbal player in 83. Never missed a practice but was not able to wrestle the spot from Kevin Bond who was there a year before myself. Soooo, since I lugged the pit eqpt. every night it gave me a fantastic chance to take pictures. I took 28 rolls of film that summer. My Twin brother Kevin was a soprano player in 82 & 83 as well. It was the best summer I have ever had and frustrating at the same time. Many lessons learned that year that made me who I am today for sure!!!
I am glad you enjoy the pictures, Best summer I ever had! I just wish I could find one shot of myself from the parades! Someday maybe.
Please tell me you are a New Orleans Saints fan?? I think I am the only one living in NJ!!!!
Sherri, I hope you are well. I am really enjoying hearing from so many folks I haven't spoken with in so long.
Are you regretting openning up that can?? Of course I would love to get a DVD and will help in whatever way I can. Stay in touch. My personal e-mail is ijolley1203@gmail.com
I understand that. I just thought it would be the best way to get it out that as many of the corp would know about it. I wouldn't mind "donating" a couple of bucks for the ASSOC. so long as they don't be George and take advantage of it. I don't think Mr. Frost would mind so long as the funds would go to the Alumni Assoc.
Wow that video would be great to have. That would take some money to have corrected and copied for a lot of people. I would suggest talking with Caryn and working something thru the Alumni Assoc. to distribute it. The Alumni Assoc could charge a couple of extra dollars over the production cost to help fund the special events.
