Fish, Turkey and Southern Sound QT
Tuesday, November 27, 2007
Boy, it was great to get a few days off. Over the Thanksgiving holiday my father-in-law and I depleted the local fisheries of a few bluegill. I caught 31, most of which were pretty big. We fished during a heavy rain storm one day. We had a ball.
Thanksgiving day was wonderful. My wife did the cooking. She needs her own cooking show on one of the food networks. It was fabulous. It was a blessing to have our children with us, as well as my in-laws. I missed my parents. Maybe next year they can come up from the Sunshine state to spend a few days.
Speaking of turkeys, Ben Harris may be one (just kiddin) but his quartet certainly isn't. Traditional quartet fans, I highly recommend Southern Sound Quartet's new CD,
For Heaven's Sake. They've got it all; low bass, high tenor, powerful lead and baritone along with a tight 4-part blend.
If your taste lends itself to the more country feel of southern gospel music, I recently heard a rough mix of 3 songs from the new Mike and Kelly Bowling project. Great songs and great singing! I can't wait to hear the entire project.
Finally, my friend Kurt LaBouve attended my church this past Sunday. He is a blind preacher, singer and songwriter. Kurt excels at everything he does. If he is ever near-by, you owe it to yourself to check him out.
That's it for now.
