Wow. Great report, John. I'm glad y'all had a great time. There's bluegrass fests all through the mid-western state parks through the summer, and one thing I always liked is in the various campsites, there's always groups of people gathering around one place or another with their instruments singing and playing. A lot of great talent among the crowd alone. Strangers become friends really quickly.

I've never gone away from a blue grass concert or camp disappointed. There's too much fun to be had.


Yup, lots of jamming going on at Gettysburg also. Many of the professionals join the jammers at the
campsites and sound doggone good!

Sometimes there's actually better talent in the camps than on the stages.

Very true. The campsite next to us is occupied by the leader of the 'Circa Blue' group. There is
jamming at his trailer every night, until the wee hours of the morning. I usually hit the rack
around 10-11pm, without hearing aids, so all I can hear is the thumping of the bass guitar. Doesn't
interfere with sleep at all. Sandy usually stays up with them until 1or 2am. But, she doesn't get up
with the dogs!

Gosh, your travels remind me of the old Woody Guthrie "camp song" lyric:


At the top of the mountains they looked to the west,
And it looked like the promised land.
That bright green valley with a water running down,
There was work for every single hand, they thought,
Work for every single hand.

Then the Joads rolled down to a jungle camp,
There they them cooked a stew.
And the hungry little kids in the jungle camp
Said: "We'd like to have some, too, Ma'am."
"We'd like to have some, too."

Porky, you should look out for those flying arse'ls. You might get
hit by your own as it circles back on you. Don't be late for your
next mud wrestling match.

It's pure hell when a narcissist doesn't get all the attention he craves.
