 | Good Morning Everyone! John "No were not going back! You've already have everything but the kitchen sink!  Joan "How did you guess what I wanted?" |
We'll, we arrived in Florida! Can't say we enjoyed the trip that much. Traffic was horrendous! It rained most of the way down here. In Tennessee a guy in a pickup pulling a rather large enclosed utility trailer passed us like we were standing still. We were driving at about 74 mph at the time. About an hour later, after a rather long traffic delay, we passed him . . . he was off on the right side of the road . . . truck smashed right into the stone outcrop you often see in the Smokies. We couldn't tell if he was hurt. It looked like he could have survived if he had his seatbelt on. Will we never learn?
The Turntable begins with The Sheb Wooley song "Purple People Eater" . . . On The flipSide it's all Roy Orbison with a little bit of Johnny Cash sprinkled in for good measure. Skip will be back next week with the final installment of "Halibut Spirit story" I've previewed it and can tell you, you don't want to miss it!
That's a wrap!
Till Next week / be safe and I'll see you on the Turntable!
