Good morning from Collegeville,
Wild horses could not have kept me from the Williams Arena yesterday to cheer the Upsala Cardinals on in their first trip to The State Tournament in the schools history, but a kidney stone did. Passing a kidney stone is the closest that a man can get to feeling the pain of child birth. Dr. Matsuura says that there is no evidence of any more stones in my kidneys, but I feel like I have been in a car wreck. I am very familiar with that feeling, having been involved in a number of car wrecks in my youth, a total of 7 if you count the time that the ’54 Chevy rolled into a tree at Cedar Lake while we were necking.
The boys did not prevail over the Springfield Tigers, but we are very proud of them anyway. I wish that I could tell you when the welcome home gathering is going to be, but I was not able to get that information this morning.
The show this week is a live broadcast from The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Special guests include the prolific Emmylou Harris, bluegrass madman Sam Bush and master fiddler Stuart Duncan. Former host Sara Watkins and the hip Tennessee duo The Civil Wars will add to the fun. Enjoy the show.
