For those who don't know, we lost Jerry jeff Walker to cancer, I know Mr Bojangles and Redneck Mother are his best know, but I really like this one, was talking about it not long ago, a day in 1986 when the now ex came home from her mom's and asked if I could guess what my daughter (3) was singing at Grandma's (her mom). :o

Well in my defense I was cleaning house and I thought she was napping a couple days before.  ::)

Mr. Bojangles, is a song I've always liked, but until this post I never paid attention who the artist was...
I'm somewhat lesser I suppose , I'll like their music, just never followed who the talent behind much of it was.
Oh,  maybe unless it was so obvious.

Rest in peace , Mr. Jerry Jeff Walker , Mr. Bojangles is  classic

So I'll poke the coals, put the pot on and get the corn flakes out .

Right with ya, Major 2.

Had a powerful gut ache that woke me. Checked the plumbing, . . . twice, and now can't find sleep again.

Suppose I'll dose myself with some coffee. We're expecting a few inches of snow tonight into tomorrow. Not enough, I'll warrant, to justify getting the snowblower fired up.

Morning all.

-6, with 12 inches of powder on the ground. Not even thanksgiving yet.

I somehow contracted a cold, despite following all of the Covid stuff that is supposed to specifically keep me from getting corona -family viruses.  As the inventors of escargot would say, se la vi.

Morning y'all.
Thanks for the coffee.

Slept in, so attending online church this morn.

I didn't know the artist for Bojangles either.

'Tis 32 and overcast. "Cloudy early followed by a mixture of light rain and snow this afternoon. High 38F. Winds light and variable. Chance of precip 50%."

Almost everyone it seems recorded it Jerry Jeff wrote it.   

Snowing here, about an inch, maybe 1-2 more, 25F with WC 12F.

I was always partial to John McEuen & Jeff Hanna's cover of Mr. Bojangles...
I knew Sammy Davis did it and quite well , but it was the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band that I though was the best rendition.
In fact I like the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band still.

Coffee is on.... :)

2" of snow. All scraped off the driveway now, mocha coffee as a reward.
The kid's dog is now lying on his belly eating the stuck snow off the snow shovel leaning inside the breezeway door.

Strange dog.
