Hi Star, Did you read about Flannery? Here's a picture from East Scenic Dr, Pass Christian, Ms. The home has been restored from Hurricane Katrina. I once knew a rich widow who would let me visit her from time-to-time who owned a home on the drive. The eye of the storm went through Pass Christian and a sheet of water almost 30 feet high came in destroying most of the old Southern homes many going back prior to the Civil War. I was there when she went through. Jake Edited by: JakeHolman on Apr 30, 2012 9:30 PM

Yep, love Mr Cooper. That's great news but what about The Hanging Tree? I have a bootleg copy and it is OK. However, I'd pay more, a lot more than I paid for it, to get the real deal. Of course, you are like me just a fan but it would be nice. Jake in the Heartland

*Ah, I wish I could go this year! We are planning to go to the Green River music festival in July to see the Guthrie family, Richard Thompson, Los Lobos, CJ Chenier and the Lost Bayou Ramblers, plus tons of other bands.* Hi Wendy, Sounds like some fun to me. It's not always where you go but where you find a way to have fun. You should really enjoy that festival and it's got plenty of talent. There's always something in your backyard to keep you interested. Always like George Harrison but not with that beard although I had one at one time, too. Shaved it off and never went back but with a mustache for a time. You take care my friend and enjoy the music. Jake

Wendy, glad you liked it. Hope all is well for you. My brother and his wife are gonna be in New Orleans for the Jazz and musical festival coming up. I can't make it this year.
