Antiques Roadshow

What a great time my friend Claudette and I had going to PBS's Antique Roadshow!! There was alot of standing in lines (in total we were probably there about 4 hours) but it was so much fun to see what other people were bringing to be appraised. Each person could bring 2 items. Some had their treasures so wrapped up you could only guess what it was - we thought one woman had a bunch of subway grinders wrapped up in her plastic boxes LOL!!! It seemed like there was alot of furniture, especially rocking chairs and it also seemed heavy in the paintings department. I was jewelry and posters & prints and Claudette was jewelry and decorative art. Luckily we were not chosen to be on tv although we were both having good hair days :) but while waiting in the jewelry line we did see a woman that had been asked to be taped and they covered up her item and she told her husband that she was told not to speak about this until it was taped - top secret stuff, we were tempted to go over and test her to see if we could break her!!!! 

On the way out we saw one of the Keno twins and quickly grabbed an autograph from him. Hmmm, he signed like a doctor so we are not sure which one he was but I think it was Leigh. He was very personable and a good sport.
It was so much fun and I'm glad we went together cuz we laughed and laughed especially when we got on the wrong elevator and then in the parking garage it seemed like we were never going to get out.

Jo Bro Mania !!!!!!!
OMG!!! My friend Joanne is INSANE!!! Her daughter is a huge Jonas Brothers fan and they have seen them several times in concert, even one just a couple of weeks ago. She sent me a text yesterday that directly after work they were driving to New Haven and taking the train into NYC to go to Bryant Park and wait for the free Jo Bro concert on Good Morning America this morning!!! Got another text around 11 pm last night when they finally got to the park, easily about 1,000 people already there. Got another text 5:30 this morn-they stayed up all night and now the crowd is of course quite larger-plus it rained during the night -yuk!! Has anyone flipped on GMA this morning?? They say the crowd is 10,000 and some people have been there since Tuesday. I think I'm glad my teenagers are way past the Jonas Brothers! I don't know, although I once drove from Indianapolis to Pontiac Michigan with people I really did not know and then waited outside the Pontiac Silverdome (and it was December) to get into a Rolling Stones Concert-festival seating was still allowed at that time and we did get front row!! I am not sure that at this stage I would do something like this to see Mick Jagger. Hmmm.. :)
