John Paul Jones

Home from Shakori. I have lots of photos and some fun video and lots of fun things to tell you but I have to get the photos on the computer. For now I'll just share a quick tale from Wesley.
She turned 17 today. She had a backstage bracelet for Shakori since she was a performer and she hung out on the stage a good part of the day today watching Bela Fleck and all the performers that were playing with him. Abigail Washburn was singing and mentioned John Paul Jones and looked over to the fellow Wesley was sitting beside. Wes came home and googled images of John Paul and sure enough she had been sitting beside him the whole time and didn't even know it. What a great way to spend your 17th birthday, sitting with the bass player for Led Zepplin and watching Bela Fleck. She also picked out a Jeff Martin painting for her birthday gift and it is a great one. I'll get some pics up tomorrow.
Peace..............

Hey there, happy birthday to Wes. Sitting on stage watching Bela and Abigail Washburn play is about as good as it gets. Good for her.
