Road Trip This Past Weekend:
If you're ever in Virginia, and you're traveling on I-81, mosey on over
to Floyd and check out their Friday night Jamboree.

For just $3, you'll be transported to a different planet where
bluegrass and old time music are the real deal.
The locals take to the dance floor, and some of them are a
definite "hoot".
We stayed at Hotel Floyd, and it was a beautiful and unique place to
stay and only a stone's throw from the venue.
The music went on for four hours. It's the best deal around.
After our evening in Floyd, we headed for Marion, Virginia, where "Song
Of The Mountains" is filmed for tv broadcast. We watch it quite often
on PBS and wanted to check it out in person sometime. For $15, we got
another 4 hours of music. (I first heard about this place when Larry
and Teresa played there.)

In between the music, we visited a few wineries.

So much to do in Virginia...so little time!
