Day 107 -- friends, music & wine

A day of meetings ended with a fun evening with friends. The food was divine -- a lobster and shrimp bisque followed by lamb brochettes and a berry compote with a biscuit-type topping to finish. We had two wonderful red wines to try -- a lovely carmenere and a stellar zinfandel. The highlight of the evening was a somewhat local fellow who sang two acoustic sets during dinner. Truly an amazing experience to be in a room with about 60 people in a private event like this. The song I requested was played <smile> -- one that I have featured on this blog before -- Jambalaya.  The evening encore ended with a song from several years back that I want to share tonight. The lyrics address something that the world needs more of -- as has been sung by many artists through the decades. This fellow has been to the Opry 18 times and was a student at the university in town -- but several years before I arrived on the scene here. Truly a gentleman. Enjoy!
