Chat / Internet Buddies
Here are more pictures of "yours truly" with some of the many wonderful friends I've been lucky enough to meet face to face, after finding them on the WWW....

Kelley and Joel were first introduced in a chat room, The Lava Lounge !

This is my dear chat friend, Jack, from Oldham, ( Lancashire) England, and his lovely bride, Carol.  They met online and he came to the USA to meet and marry her.  In a touching ceremony on 5/22/99, they became husband and wife. They are living happily ever after, in England !!!

Yours Truly, Tracie (Lonestar) and Andrew (Slider).  Texas, 10/99

New Years come
and new years go,
But there's one thing
that you should know:

In times of laughter,
times of tears:
I am your friend,
I'm always near.

Despite the miles
and busy days,
Although we go
our separate ways:

As each new day
receives its start,
I'll harbor you
within my heart.
