Jamie took us to dinner here. If you’re ever in Wellsboro, check it out. The Wellsboro House That is!
Time for a snooze.
More will be revealed!
Continued prayers ………gratitude is the key.@Carey Georgas
@John B
Thanks for asking, John. He’s mending, but still pretty bunged up. His heft shoulder was pretty much destroyed, but the doctor said the surgery went better than he’d hoped. He’s still in a back brace and can get up from a chair by himself, but not from a prone position, or sitting low, like on a couch. Once up, he’s gotten to where he can walk around the house 10 or 12 times at a stretch. It’s gonna be a long haul, but I’m grateful to the One that he’s still with us. If you’dve seen that Jeep and crash site, shit fire, it’s a wonder. And my grandson only got a gash on his cheek and some bruises. Always a place for gratitude, even in the toughest spots. Thanks again for your thought.
How is your sons recovery progressing ?@carey georgas
I just watched the new skynyrd DVD of knebworth 76…Jorma were is the Hot Tuna video? I would like you recall on that show. Probably one of biggest crowds for Tuna. Thanks…keep on truckin’
Who Knows?
I have been to the Wellsboro House, and we had a great dinner there. Don’t you love driving US 6?
Indeed I do.
On the Way Home and Long May You Run. Not one but two references in one entry.
Still interested in a Neil story from you…..be it good, bad or ugly.
I’d settle for a foam pad and sleeping bag
Fantastic party, beautiful family and great music. What could be better? I do want to set up a cot in that music room.
Great seeing ya brother!
Looks like you’re having fun. Pretty easy to slip back into the saddle? No “saddle sores”, so to speak?
Happy Birthday Eddie !
