UNCLES
2009 May 8
My Uncle Elmer was a magic man for me. He didn’t play music (except for the radio), but he was certainly a force to be reckoned with. He’s been gone a long time now. ◊◊ I had an uncle big as life – he called me “Captain” ◊◊ He believed he played a part in God’s plan ◊◊ Drove a Hudson Hornet car and a John Deere Tractor ◊◊ Safe in the sweaty palm of God’s hand. ◊◊ My Great Uncle George’s proposal to Aunt Bessie was: “Will you bake my biscuits?” My Uncle Joe was a great baseball pitcher. My dad said when they were kids on the farm, Uncle Joe would practice by putting a bucket on the other side of a tree where he couldn’t see it, and throw curve balls around the tree into the bucket. Here’s to Uncles.

I have been following your band for a long time and I am disable on a fixed income, so I haven.t been able to buy your latest albums, but I have 4 albums and I have a cd player in my bedroom and I listen the your music at night till I go to sleep.

I just love the instriments you guys play. there are so many, and from the books that come with you albums, I know they are old. Also I feel I know all of you from the books,
I am getting old and am having so many surgerys on my legs, ( they are replacing the blood veins in my legs, 3 times this year) but you guys keep me going.
Any way I just wanted you to know how much your music means to me.
Love all you guys and girls.
