I wish they would move this event to May or June. I live in central Nevada, usually a bit warmer than Elko. We got four more inches of "Global Warming" last night. It should get up to 32 degrees F today and go to 13 degrees tonight. Lovely for a good outdoor sing-around, don't ya think?

There is a nice CD recorded in 2004 by Western Jubilee Recording Company L.L.C., item number 80302-01184-2. Some of the players are Skip Gorman, Baxter Black, Ian Tyson, Red Steagall, Glenn Ohrlin, Michael (M.) Murphey, Tom Russell, Sons of the San Joaquin, David Wilkie, Waddie Mitchell, Don Edwards, and even Wylie Gustafson. This CD can be ordered directly from the company in Colorado. The eBay dealers usually add a huge shipping charge that only fools pay.

If it were a reasonable time of year, people could visit the nearby Ruby Mountains, which are just lovely at the right time.
