“Tam Lin” is a spooky story song performed by Bob Hay & the Jolly Beggars. They were an offshoot of Squalls, another Athens,GA band. They performed the music of 18th century Scots poet Robert Burns on bluegrass instruments. I love listening to it this time of year.

I celebrated my 70th birthday yesterday last night at home. My husband made dinner & a small carrot cake.Here I am with my oldest daughter. That I wasn’t able to make it to a No Kings protest was my only regret- watched the coverage on TV & then watched UGA win. Thank you for peacefully protesting.

Driving back from Memphis, Pylon Reenactment Society stopped in Jasper, AL at Bayou Seafood and Deli. We had some amazing sushi and seafood. It’s in a gas station—don’t be afraid—it’s some of the best sushi we’ve ever had. Very fresh and reasonably priced. The waitstaff were super nice and friendly.

A friends Dad parachuted where you see the 82nd Airborne on this map. They made a trip going back to the places he went back then. The steeple had a soldier with a parachute on it-he said by the time he got there that the parachute was still there, but the body had already been taken down.

Went out to see @thebaseballproject.bsky.social and The Minus Five at the 40 Watt Club last night. Ran into Will and Chris from @podfellowslocal151.bsky.social before the show.
Both Baseball Project and Minus 5 were great! Go see them!
