      He's a treasure. Cancer has a lot to answer for.

      Chilly here (50) and cloudy, but we're expecting a high in the 60s. My patio plants are greening up.

      Wow. Shoveling is just such a foreign concept here.

    I don't remember seeing blues played on dobro. Not that I've seen a lot of blues but I found that interesting. And that he played it with that metal rod and not a slide bar. :)

      I don't even know what a dobro is, but I looked it up:

      I've heard this technique called lap slide guitar:
