| Well folks Its looking up for the Jam here in Yuma. So far Its confirmed that Merril Fitch, Frank Carter, Wes Bakken, Larry Cummings, Jonathan Candler are going to be here. We might have Tommy Wiggins from Tuxson here. I havent met him yet but we will be happy to have him, and any other pickers that are in the area. Maybe Bill Bailey from Kinghman and some of the other pickers in that area can get together and come down for the day. We will start pickem around seven or eight in the morning and go until we cant stand it anymore. |

Hey Hap!

I only fly driving on the ground.Their not going to crash me into any buildings.

Wow what fun - there were 8 or 10 guys jammin down there and the grilled hambergers were great.
All that fun even during the Cardnial's history making football game.
I can see the football game on replay but that time with the group was special.
Thanks Hap and Faye ----- Great jam

They gave us some favorable comments and said that they had a ball. We were sorry that Fred and big Jim couldnt make it but there was more food for us. Thanks to all the ladies for the cakes and cookies and all the trimings on the table.Thanks also for the rythum section we had. Dan on drums Randy on bass and Herb who spelled randy on bass. We also had a fine dobro this year. All in all it was a GREAT TIME..Thanks for comming guys and gals. |
