Well tomorrow is the big day !!! I am so glad to hear our old friend PeeWee Whitewing is going to make the show.

However I placed a post in "Extended Family" about my friend Mike Hoover's heart attack and resulting surgery. I know we will all miss Mike at the show tomorrow and as I said in that post, Please pray for Mike's full and speedy recovery.

Everyone that hasn't left home yet and those with the wirless gear, we also ask that you travel safe, and hope to see everybody at the show and real hungry for R.J.'s Gumbo.

Just got back home from the fish camp. Had to pleasure to run across Jr. Martin and family, and the group from Louisiana. Had a very special treat when Beau Thomas took his violin/sometimes fiddle out and inserted it on the band stand. What a talent this guy is. Really excited about tomorrow. The band with Pee Wee, Beau, Gary Granger, Bob Saxton, Ben O'Dell and their drummer of choice. Hopefully Jerry Jaye will be in house to help with the vocals. And of course the great band of Jr. Martin will top it all off. See you all tomorrow. Mike Hoover will be missed. Prayers on the way for him too.
