LHOP The Musical and Meeting Melissa Gilbert10-22-2008 6:37:24 pm
This past week I had the opportunity to attend Little House on the Prairie, the musical, at the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis. The production was fantastic with great singing and dancing that brought the whole story together. Following the show I had the priviledge of going backstage to meet Melissa Gilbert (she played Ma Ingalls) and the rest of the cast. (Sometimes being an Ingalls does get you special treatment.) The whole cast was waiting for me and we suddently all became "family". Melissa Gilbert is a beautiful woman, both inside and out. Hugs from Uncle Charlie, Aunt Caroline and Almanzo really made my day! If you get the chance to see this production if it goes on the road, be sure to do so. I recommend it highly! I'll try to add a photo of Melissa and me later today.

Buddy how many times are you going to make me jealous because I declined the opportunity to go with you?

I've read Beth's reviews and seen her photos and they are quite excellent. I am sure Melissa was just as thrilled as you were when the two of you met. I am glad you were given the opportunity to go back stage and meet the cast... pretty amazing in itself.

Love ya buddy...
