It’s not a short drive from Orlando to Tomball… but hey, Texas is a big state. We were on our way to Main St. Crossing in Tomball, Texas.

Then a non stop bus run to Kansas City to watch the Super Bowl!
Selfie by Myron Hart
OK… the Super Bowl. Obviously I would have preferred the Bengals to win for a lot of reasons… but they didn’t. I;m not pleased, but that’s football I guess. We still love Joe and his team mates!
Next year…
Having witnessed Myron’s enthusiasm for Joe Burrow firsthand, I’m sure he was living and dying on every play.
The Tomball show was a sight to behold. The house was full and jumpin’. The set list was masterfully crafted and supernaturally performed. I guess what got me most of all was the totally obvious joy experienced by the two old friends up there doing what they love. There weren’t no going through motions to get the show done and on to Dallas. Those guys were having a blast, and it was more contagious than the Omicron. The whole house was infected by the end of the first song. Nothing beats watching masters doing what they enjoy, and enjoying it while they do. I think Jack’s been attached to his bass during the pandemic. He was showing some moves that came from a place few ever know. I even thought I saw Jorma’s jaw drop a time or two. Thank you for a time well had.
That’s right. Jack is from California and Jorma’s from Ohio. Good game but refs blew it at the end giving the Bengal’s 3 penalties on the winning drive. Bengals should’ve won. Joe Burrow is a great quarterback!
Great setlists in Texas!
I have to guess there was one guy on the bus that is happy about the Rams win…JC
Parchman Farm? Very cool!
