Art--We wish you could be there, too! We'll be thinking of you.
Uncle Phil--The temp today in Kansas is 100+ degrees. You might think on packing more summer than winter this year! Unless, of course, it rains... Your pictures are gorgeous, and the camera only takes what the photographer points at, so you must have something to do with it, yes?
LEJ--Where will you be camped, do you know yet? We'd love to meet you! If you see a little red scooter with a dulcimer case in the back tootling around the Walnut Grove, yell at me will ya? And if you make it by the Pecan Grove, keep an eye out for Thumper and the big ol' washtub bass. The coffee pot is always on, so come on by any time. Even 3 AM most nights! :>)
