The Long and Winding Road

Like the popular song by The Beatles, a few of our members drove from Laurens, today, taking to the less traveled roadways to avoid early morning traffic issues that are sometimes encountered on the interstate highways.  For the most part, the trip went smoothly until we arrived in our destination city of Pickens.  Several wrong turns later, we were able to arrive at our destination thanks to our leader’s onboard navigation system.  A few others had some minor difficulty locating the venue, but nothing serious.  When you’re not familiar with a particular place or area, things can get interesting.  We were just a few minutes late and we hurried to set up chairs and our sound equipment.  We even had time to warm up and do a sound check before our scheduled 10:30 am start time.

We kicked things off right on time to a rather small group.  However, as the time went by, the audience swelled and filled the room.  We saw many smiles and enthusiastic participation from the audience of seniors.

Thanks so much to the Pickens Senior Center for hosting our performance and for providing us with a delicious meal before we got back on the road for the trip home.


All set up and ready to go.  Thanks to band member Glenn for the pic.
