In life, all good things come hard, but
wisdom is the hardest to come by...
Both Arvid and I were very tired yesterday.
I guess we’re not used to bar hopping like we
did before. Getting older is kicking our butts,
but today we are back on track. I feel rested and
ready for whatever the day throws at us.the day.

As I mentioned before that we had a very good
time in St Louis. That evening we went to see
Marquise Knox. A very good blues musician.
Arvid and I have seen him a few times before.
The first time was also in St Louis at BB Kings
club. Marquise was not of legal age to drink at
the time. He was barely 19, but still good.
We chatted with him and he tried to get
Arvid to buy him alcohol. It was an interesting
evening. We also saw him at a Blues festival in
New York many years ago. He mainly plays
in St.Louis when not touring Europe.
He had just finished a European tour.
The venue in St. Louis is called The Oyster Bar.
A little hole in the wall as many would describe it.
It packed and from what everyone told us it is
the place for music. They did not lie. Like us,
people of all ages were enjoying the music.
We had a great time. I even enjoyed crawfish.
Seems like it was crawfish season. We were seated
next to two girls. One of them was as entertaining
as Marquise Knox I laughed so much that night.
I do hope we go back to St Louis one more time
before our summer in Branson is over.
Back home in Florida farmers really need your support;
as I'm sure so does many in other states. Due to all the
freezing weather we have had in Florida the agricultural
sector has faced a terribly devastating financial crisis.
Here at home all is good. Feels so good to be home.
Snidd is watching the birds and squirrels. Arvid still
sleeping. It's a beautiful morning here in Branson, MO
