That folk music venue in Toledo is run by Frank and Nancy (Francy), and it is alive and well, thanks to them. Don't miss it. I'm sure you can get them to send/post you a schedule.
I believe the, uh, guests at Sheridan FCI refer to it as Disneyland, lep.
And after many years at least one fatal a year, the locals managed to close Gonzo Ted Mudfield's skydiving down.(His plane had a bumpersticker on the inside of the door that said "Where the hell is China?"). Our entertainments are tamer now. We don't live in town so we miss most of them -- fights in the bars and the city council. The country is beautiful, and a number of artists and musicians live in the hills roundabout.
And my daughter is in her sixth year of learning Japanese in a part of our local public school system, so we aren't quite ready to invite Cletus and Buford to move in, unless they happen to be guests at Disneyland.
Blessings,
Barbara
