| This is a test to see if I can get the pictures to show up here! "The Radio Lady" is what everyone at the festival called Annabelle This was the first time I had ever met Charlie Zahm. He is a very gracious and entertaining fellow. Along with Tad and Marc his music is very heart warming and inspiring. It was a delight to meet such a nice person. Treat yourself to attend a festival he is appearing at so you may enjoy his humor and entertaining manner. His CD's are such a joy to listen to but he, Tad and Marc are worth a trip to see! Thanks again Charlie, Annabelle |

 All Right Annabelle!!!! What a GREAT pic!! It's so good to finally see you, Kiddo!! You're beautiful, and so much like I'd imagined you'd be! Thanks for sharing this with us   Dreamer1 |

| Dreamer girl you are always so good to me! Thank you but you need glasses me dear! Hope you will enjoy the pictures I still have to post here! So please be patient with me! There will be pictures under the music section too! I'm glad to hear you are enjoying them, that does my heart good! |

Hey sis! Nice picture! But I always knew you were the pretty one.  But, I have to say - man Charlie Zahm is a serious cutie! Is he married - oh wait, never mind I am.  Is he a giant or are you a shrimp like me? I thought mom gave you the tall genes. But quit showing me pictures! I already regret not being able to go.  |

 Can it be? Or beloved Deb has shown her face? And what a lovely face it is. Looks like you had an awesome time A. (perhaps the previous posts were a hint of that  ) Thanks for sharing with those of us who couldn't be there.  |

Lady E, rumor has it, Charlie will be a free man soon. Get ready ladies!! I over-heard a few women talking at the fest and they were discussing that very issue.  As for how tall he is, I'm 6'2" and had to slightly look up at him, so I'm figuring he's 6'4" or 6'5". |
| Posted by: WizardofOwls 29-Sep-2004, 07:05 PM |
| Annabelle! Tis a lovely lady that you are! Thanks for sharing the pics with us! Can't wait to see the rest! |
| Posted by: Annabelle 29-Sep-2004, 07:53 PM |
| Hey all this was only a test! The really good pictures are up and coming this week and weekend! I've got alot of pictures to crop and download! YOU have only seen a start...that is all! So you'll really enjoy the others.. Annabelle |
| Posted by: Annabelle 29-Sep-2004, 07:55 PM |
| Maisky lick the monitor so I can see you light up and fry your brains! It will be like christmas lights flashing on and off! |
| Posted by: Annabelle 29-Sep-2004, 09:37 PM |
| Maisky let me put new light bulbs in your ears before you lick the monitor! Most of the other photo's will be under music so check there too |

Wow! I am really enjoying the pics! Thanks so much for sharing them..........share more!  |
| Posted by: Annabelle 30-Sep-2004, 10:22 PM |
| Thanks Rose, I'm glad to see everyone is enjoying them. I had a ball up there! I'm making plans on going again next year! |
| Posted by: CelticRose 30-Sep-2004, 10:29 PM |
| It must be a really huge festival if they had all those bands playing! So glad you were able to hook up with some CelticRadio heads! |
| Posted by: Elspeth 01-Oct-2004, 06:11 AM | ||||
YIKES! That's tall! Yep, he is a cutie alright. If he sings as good as he looks then he'd be worth hearing. |
| Posted by: Annabelle 01-Oct-2004, 10:00 AM |
| Charlie is just a nice person. I don't inquire into a person's private life. Enjoy the personality and if a person wants to disclose that it will come with time. I never ask those things! I would think it would make the person being asked uncomfortable if they were asked are you married? So when we go next year don't ask anyone or I'll have to bring the duct tape! And pulling it off is gonna really hurt! A |
| Posted by: Liriel Baenre Do'Urden 01-Oct-2004, 04:07 PM |
| Annabelle, Thanks so much for posting the pictures. Now I have faces to put to names. Hehe. Just wanted to write and say that I missed not going to the festival. I've told my husband that next time we are going and if I have to bring the babies so be it. I'll just buy stock in Dramamine. |
| Posted by: TequilaNancy 01-Oct-2004, 04:28 PM |
| Hey Annabelle, Looks like you had a fantastic time at the classic! We had a great time in Wildwood at Irish Weekend. Barleyjuice put on some fantastic shows. Still I missed going to the classic. Love the Tartan Terrors. Barleyjuice played after them at the PA Renn Faire last year. The Terrors were fabulous! Also, just wondering if you have any info on to whom we should send a press kit for the Classic for next year? Wildwood was fun but Barleyjuice would love to stay home and play in Bethlehem next year. Slainte, Nancy |
| Posted by: Annabelle 01-Oct-2004, 07:39 PM |
| Yes Nancy I have the guys name in my dayrunner at the office. I will post his name here tomorrow for you. Hope that will help. You will need to send a listing of where BarleyJuice has played in the last 6 months and a demo CD. If there's anything else you need to know yell! Annabelle |

Is it OK if I go swimming again in the pool??? |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 01-Oct-2004, 09:26 PM |
| Mike, You took some great pics! Just one thing, though....couldn't someone have taken a pic of you?? Annabelle took that leap (YEAH!!). You should've had your picture taken with some of the groups, too!  Dreamer1 |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 01-Oct-2004, 11:52 PM |
| But there are pictures of me. Annabelle just wants to hog all the limelight!! It's alright, Annabelle got to see parts of Pennsylvania she would have never seen, if I wasn't the tour guide. We will be posting some of those pictures to, just as general interest, in case Bethlehem is choosen as the 2008 site (which it should ). We really needed an extra day, just to go around the area and explore a bit more to find more spots that could be of interest to some of the members, such as, the Crayola Factory, micro breweries, wineries, canal boat tours, Dorney Amusement Park, many State and Federal Parks, the Harley and Caterpillar Factory tours, coal mine tours, caves........much to do and see. |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 02-Oct-2004, 07:12 PM | ||
Ok Karen, here's one of me WITH Annabelle (she always has to be in the pic). |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 02-Oct-2004, 07:23 PM |
And this is from the party that night back in the hotel from just 3 of us.   |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 02-Oct-2004, 07:34 PM |
| 3Raven (Josie) was also along with us and most of you have no idea what she looks like either. Josie hadn't arrived until after the Glengarry Bhoys show, so she missed out on the group shot. |
| Posted by: Annham 02-Oct-2004, 08:39 PM |
| Nice Pics Shurle, Thank you for sharing!!! |
| Posted by: Annabelle 02-Oct-2004, 09:00 PM |
| Egan hide from all of the picture taking! It's not my fault really! (I want in front) move over!!!!! |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 02-Oct-2004, 09:29 PM |
 Yep, that's pretty much how it was. I have the bruises to prove it. |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 03-Oct-2004, 09:14 AM |
| Oh, I love that first picture of you two in Bethlehem!! Thanks Mike! As to the party shot at the hotel, I recognise that small bottle on the left--it's a favorite at our house. My sister's fond of it, too. Annabelle, have you tried their Gourmet Sauce? (Did I ask you that once before? My memory is foggy today.) I didn't recognise the Wine labels, though, so could you fill me in? I'm always interested in trying new ones! I know you all had a blast! 3Ravens, I'm glad to see you, too!! Looks like you were really enjoying everything, too--I'm jealous. Are there any more pictures?? Dreamer1 |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 03-Oct-2004, 09:23 AM | ||
Glad to help out! Left to right: Makers Mark, green bottle-Sheldrake Riesling (Finger Lakes), hidden bottle-1990 Mondavi Cabernet, 1985 Mondavi Cabernet, 1997 Mondavi Oakville Cabernet, 1997 Mondavi Stags Leap District (SLD) Cabernet. Crystal by Galway Crystal, Ireland. |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 03-Oct-2004, 09:34 AM |
| Mike, did you bring all the Mondavi? (I'm running over to our favorite wine store tomorrow!) Thanks! K |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 03-Oct-2004, 09:42 AM |
| Karen, don't go into sticker shock when you go look for those, if you can find them. All of those Mondavi's are $80 and up. I said I was bringing special wines with me but only three of us got to try them. You can find some nice Mondavi in the $25 range but even the $11-$13 range isn't bad. Stay away from the 1998 and 2000 Cabernet, not good years for California. |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 03-Oct-2004, 09:47 AM |
| Thanks for the "heads up". I knew you'd brought some special ones! |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 03-Oct-2004, 12:18 PM | ||
Just realized, I forgot the bottle in the middle. That's 2002 Warwick Valley Winery Cabernet Franc from the Hudson Valley New York. |
| Posted by: Annabelle 03-Oct-2004, 01:04 PM |
| I have more pictures but haven't had the time to crop and put them on yet. The other night I worked on posting stuff for 4 hours and didn't get a whole lot done due to my ignorance of computers.! A |
| Posted by: 3Ravens 03-Oct-2004, 07:44 PM |
| Hey sis! You really are hogging the limelight here! Where's Charlie's other arm? The one that was around me? Mike, you can go back in the pool, but don't forget the towels this time! If I had known I was drinking liquid gold, I would have savored it more! ( Ooooo, that Reisling......)  |
| Posted by: Annabelle 11-Oct-2004, 09:41 AM |
| I said it was a test, remember?: That was the first time I'd ever posted a picture and I was trying to crop it down to 512 size and sorry it took half of Charlie out and you! I'll repost it with the whole picture as soon as I find the file again. Sorry Kindergarten computer person here. I'm still learning here. |
| Posted by: greenldydragon 11-Oct-2004, 12:39 PM |
| Really nice pictures for learning Annabelle! Looked like you guys had a great time! Lucky ducks! |
| Posted by: Shadows 11-Oct-2004, 01:40 PM |
| OK I see our Annabelle is a Bonnie Raitt look alike in tartan! Lady your look is a little more mellow then the bar slidin hussy you presented yourself as....aint age a wonderful thing! good pics keep em coming! |

| Thank you so much Mr Egan for helping to correct this mistake Bonnie Ratt, Wow! You made my day! |

| One of the main reasons I go to the Bethlehem Classic and to the Winter Celtic Musicfest in Valley Forge every year, The Infamous Welsh Cookie Co. I buy enough to last for 6 months in the freezer, then go to the next show and stock up again. Dave was washed out at the Kentucky Celtic Fest the week before Bethlehem because of the hurricane, so he brought all those cookies and the Bethlehem allotment and still sold out. 320,000 people can go through a lot of Welsh cookies. http://infamouswelshcookies.bizhosting.com/index.html |
| Posted by: Avonlea22 12-Oct-2004, 06:53 PM |
| I just found a recipe for those puppies. I think I'm going to give them a try. |
| Posted by: Annabelle 12-Oct-2004, 07:42 PM |
| Brian I want the reciepe! Send it to me by E-mail and I'll make em and compare. the Welsh cookies were pretty good! |
| Posted by: Avonlea22 12-Oct-2004, 08:41 PM |
| Done! |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 12-Oct-2004, 08:41 PM | ||
Brian, the key to frying them properly, make sure you roll them out thinner then a quarter inch. Most receipes tell you a quarter inch or more. They never cook all the way through if they are to thick, then the outside burns. Make sure you dry fry them to. Some people spray Pam or use butter on the pan and that changes the texture. |
| Posted by: Avonlea22 13-Oct-2004, 03:28 AM |
| Thanks for the tip! I'm not sure when I'll get to them because of the whole wrist thing. Hopefully soon though, because they sound yum! |

| Celtic Classic 2005 September 23, 24 & 25 Yes, it's coming up to that time of year again. Annabelle and I already have rooms reserved. Who else is coming??? http://www.celticfest.org/ This year also has the USA National Highland Championships events going on, so this should be an exceptional fest. |
| Posted by: Annabelle 11-Jul-2005, 03:14 PM |
| Guys and Girls!!!! 2008 will be here before you know it!! Bethlehem is the best festival I've seen!!! If you don't come, you're a loser cause you are missing out on the best festival on the whole darn east coast! Now Sylvanus has a good excuse but you other guys, what's it take to get you guys moving!!! I just hate to see everyone miss it cause I know in my heart you would have a kick butt time and never want to miss it from now on!!! So try to come! |

| Ok Terry, what time should Annabelle and I pick you up at the airport????? That's the Lehigh Valley International Airport (ABE), just so you don't have a hard time figuring out which airport to use. |
| Posted by: single speed 21-Jul-2005, 09:22 PM |
| Me FLY? Heck, I'll just ride my bike! |
| Posted by: A Shrule Egan 23-Jul-2005, 05:42 PM |
| Terry, if you can get the time off from teaching, by all means ride your bike all the way to Bethlehem from Texas but somehow I think you will be to tired to enjoy the festival. Take the plane and have some fun with us. We'll pick you up. The hotel is five minutes away from the airport. |
