OK you all---

The best song that gets me going about the island is U2's song, a beautiful day... I remember when this song came out, it was during the hurricane relief effort.. I even had tears in my eye, driving down the road to work knowing that alot of us here on this board helped the people of the island... So that song will stay with me forever... Everytime you all here it think of the island and not this concrete rodeo we live in........ IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!!!!

Rick

Rick,

I am a U2 freeeeaaaaak! Bono and the boys have a way of evoking intense emotions in me like you said. 'Beautful Day' is a song about a man who loses all of his "worldly posessions" and at his lowest point realizes he has never been happier and sees the true meaning to his life (Bono, Rolling Stone)! The song gives me chills......too bad I will miss you in July, I'd love to meet you guys. Have an offer to crash at Tom V.'s for a few days, so I will be heading back down June 29th!!!! If you had told me before I went in March that my trip was going to have such a profound influence on me and that I'd be running back the first chance I got, I never would have believed it! Reading this board everyday and and all the beautiful words people write from the heart, it keeps my spirit alive for my return.

on the road and ya got no destination.....

Cheri,
YOu asked for songs....
"When the lights go down in the city.....
and the sun shines on the bay...
Oooo I want to be there in my city....
(San Pedro being my "city")
Journey.

Island Girl does it for me too......
Debbie

Ya know Debbie, I thought about that one too!! LOL And Madonna's song "La Isle Bonita"...that one will bring a tear!! C THANKS and i'm stiil driving him crazy, ever know a married couple who communicate via AC message board??? LOL Rick works odd hours! We have our 7 year wedding anniversary May 28th!!! Seems like 2!!I love you my Ricky!!

Okay, a question ... is La Isla Bonita really about AC? She does mention "San Pedro". If it is... hey, if Madonna likes, that's good enough for me.
I've yet to go there yet, but I feel like maybe Bill and I were born with the "island spirit".
Puttering in our garden with our tropicals(here in Louisiana), eating, drinking. Work is a sidebar unlike so many others in the US. (By work I mean, oh I don't know, currently I'm working for a bunch of lawyers...all working to drive the newest car... my Mom working to have "THE" ultimate house...not us at all).
I can see us, in our little house on AC, puttering in the garden, cruisin' up to Elvi's... or whatever...or wherever.
Never been there....and WE'RE THERE.
Already looking into it.
Rick & Cheri, when we retire, we'll have to hang together.
Just promise me they have grits on AC!!!!LOL!!!

Hey B & J-- You got it.. GRITS!!! no problem...... And I really don't know about Madonna's song, but if you listen to it, I think she's talkin about the island....
OK Here's another on I get very much into when it comes on the radio.... It's by Fastball,,,"The Way" "They made up their minds and started packin, They left before the sun came up" "Where were they going without even knowing the way" "They will never get old and grey" "Knowing the Way" BELIZE!!!!!!!!!

And Thank you Baby!!!!! HAPPY 7TH!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!


Rick

I'm sitting here listening to UB40....Oldie.... Can't forget about-- "Can't help falling in love" Have to listen to all the words... Goes for the island and especially my wife CHERI !!!!!
I love you baby!!!!!
