Tom, really enjoyed my visit with your family. The croud was sparce between 5 and 8 because of Black Friday, but they were delightful and I'm looking forward to seeing them again.
The cousin(?) works at a Home Hepot I go to all the time...I recognized him from there, and he's going to take the job as head of maintenance for a big, upscale restaurant group. Folks from the group have talked to me about playing over the years, so, who knows, we may work together sometime.
A nice visit with nice folks. I lived in Oscoda as a kid (military brat) and my grandparents were in Detroit.
All in all, they made the evening.
Russ
