7/6 Jam

At straight-up 7 p.m., we had three fiddles and one banjo in the place.
Three hours later, we had somehow sailed through another fine evening of music, singing and caffeine-fueled fellowship.
Chris showed up, bass in tow, and hung tough for more than 2 hours before relinquishing the doghouse to Kendall.
T. Mills also thumped the last number -- "Sitting On Top of the World."
Mary, Christian, Sandra, Larry, Tim P, Jason, Richard, Doug D, Bill and I (maybe some others?) along with the aforementioned troika rocked and reeled through the night. Jason and Doug played "Big Country," among other oddball numbers.
A fine time was had by all.

Thought I'd never hear of a night without 4-5 guitars! Ralphie, you always carry on with great honor to the event you started, no matter the circumstances. Sorry I missed out.

I'll be back for a short visit next week...

I think we had 2 guitars -- Kendall and Sandra. Then Chris borrowed Jason's guitar. Oh yeah -- Jason picked a little git-tar, too.

I give MVP to Sandra, as we were strugglin' until somebody filled that guitar role. Once the pieces were there, the whole thing started rolling.
