the Go-Go GirLs

The Go-Go Girls........remember them? I just saw them on the Today Show singing their favorite tunes from the 70-80's.

I'm writing 2 entries today simply because after seeing the Go-Go Girls on the Today Show this morning it brought back memories. Yes, here we go again Memories..........

We simply loved the Go-Go Girls when we were in girl scouts in about 5th & 6th grade Juniors. I can remember back to girl scout camp, making preparations to entertain the troop one night while camping with the music "We got the Beat" & "Vacation" by the Go-Go Girls. We of course were lip syncing but nervous? yes!! We almost didn't do it.

There always 5 of us, the perfect group size for the G0-Go Girls: Kendra, Barb, Shanda, Christa and myself. We were the go go's...laughing now on that but good memories. Wearing our short shorts and leg warmers, trying to be all cooL like the girls in this band. Boy, those were good times and I miss them so much!

Watching and hearing these songs this morning brought tears to my eyes thinking about this group of 5 girls that I grew up with and were inseperable throughout grade school and girl scouts..........missing Christa the most since she is no longer with us and died about 9 years ago. I will never forget our girl scout memories and I'm hoping Taylor has scout memories like I did.

Kendra I think was the most nervous to perform in front of the troop and kept wanting to back out.........we finally did it and wasn't too bad for amateurs but I just laugh now thinking about how cooL we thought we were.

The Go-Go Girls........what fun!
