Hats off to Jimmy Carter! What a great human being! Happy 100th Birthday, Mr. President!

Howdy!

It wasn’t too bad. One of my small trees blew over:

Thanks for your concern.

Just now the wind is blowing pretty good here, but I’ve seen worse. I’m worried about my friends in Tallahassee.

Hearing Michael Perry sing again inspired me to post some of Buddy Valentine’s old numbers. See the link in the menu bar?

This strip didn’t appear.

It looks like the storm is going to miss us. I’m worried about my old friends in Tallahassee. I got to run out now and buy 24 rolls of toilet paper.

Don’t you hate it when they target ads to you?

A week ago last Saturday I went to to a luau at an old friend’s house. She moved down here about three years ago. It was quite a feast and wild time. A bunch of old friends came down from Northern Virginia for the party. My old friend, Dyanne, even had a roasted pig and an apple in it’s mouth. For a while I thought I was on Bango-Bango with the Cannibals. And what a wild time.  But as I mentioned a few days ago, my old friend and fantastic musician, Tom Saputo, provided the music. Is he ever terrific. He bunked with me and Frau G while he was here. Another special treat was that my old friend and incredibly gifted performer, Michael Perry, from Las Vegas was there. I took a video of him singing my favorite that he sings, The Isley Brothers’ Shout! Wouldn’t you know it, my IPhone just went blewey and I lost all my photos and videos. Michael’s  voice just blows me away. He has a bunch of videos posted on YouTube, for example this one, Percy Sledge’s When a Man Loves a Woman.  My personal thanks goes out to our hostess Dyanne, and Tom and Michael.
