Subject: BS: Shatner sighting at Kerrville FF
We're back in Lake Charles LA, on our way home from the Kerrville Folk Festival. One more day on the road tommorrow, and then home.

We're visiting with a guitar addict friend from another forum. He's got 7 or 8 guitars, and a lot of cool guitar-related other toys. We convoyed to Kerrville with three fine guitarist and songwriter friends from Columbus, one of whom is an accomplished luthier named Riley Yeilding.

Bill S. was stationed at the gate of the festival site to welcome new arrivals. He looked stunning in his Kerrville Folk Festival t-shirt. JtS got a picture of me with him and I'll post it after we get home and get it available to post a link to.

Ronny Cox (actor who portrayed the guitar playing character in the movie "Deliverance") was there too, and JtS wrote a parody of a song Ronny wrote at a song-writing workshop. JtS was sitting right next to him when he sang the song, so Ronny could have punched his lights out, but he never did. We were happy about that.

More tomorrow or the next day.
