Hi Everyone,

I generally avoid shameless plugs, but I can't resist on this one. My wife and I will be down at this event at least on Saturday because...my bluegrass (actually bluegrassy/acoustic roots/early country) band is playing at the event. So in addition to birding (hopefully by kayak as well as from terra firma) I'll be part of the entertainment. The band is Down the Road and we are playing from noon to 12:45 on Saturday at the Pickled Heron.
