Iffy plays the longneck 6. Next to him is Kristin, a local young lady with a tremendous singing voice.  Karen playing bass. She also sang us a beautiful original song on her Ovation. The top on her guitar is a gorgeously aged caramel color.  Terry is a local with a great sense of humor. Here he sings a song about eating health food...  Dusty and Jarret are local high school boys who jammed with us. The other musician is, if I heard correctly, a tourist who dropped in for the day and hung out. He did a very nice duet with Katie on James Taylor's Fire and Rain.  | ||

Katie, not missing a beat, replied, "What a coincidence, I've been playing banjo all morning".  CrimsonLakes' sons in the background.  Dustin, a local, tears it up on a Hamer.  The kids headed outside in the evening while the adults continued inside the shop.  | ||

Craig Carothers put on a songwriting workshop on Saturday, followed by a concert at the local bookstore that evening. Great guy, great songwriter, great performer.   | ||

Johnny has the best legs, but he lives in Florida and his tan really helped.  | ||
