It was great! Went to Warm Springs where FDR had his winter place, was in the room where he died. Then went to Andersonville, a Civil War prison site for captured Union troops. Sad place. You could feel the presence of those troops there ... it's a large sloping field ...Haunting place.

There was a POW museum there that had artifacts of stuff GI's made in prison camps during our past wars.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hope you have nice traveling weather.

Yes...a wonderful Wednesday with a 3 mile walk, arm and shoulder workouts, got to practice several of my instruments, and had some great lessons.

On a crazy side note...i got a call from a guitar player who deserted me (leaving me without a guitar player on EASTER Sunday, 2014), who wanted me to play in his band.

Seriously.

I kindly told him I was too busy.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Checked.....nothing from FRiends.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Love the seal of approval. LOL!!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Permission Granted!

[Kathy in Alaska]

There is no accounting for some people and their actions.

He probably doesn’t even remember the desertion. *sigh*
