On the DIY front I have been converting my 2000 Buick LeSabre into a camper van for the Biscuit and some other camping/visiting trips in the near future. If you are between Arkansas and Florida and you want to play some music let me know and we can set something up.

And on the gaming front I'm playing D&D 5e tonight!

Let me know what you've been doing. I want to promote your music on Delta Boogie. With my new self contained transport maybe we can get together IRL.

Thanks,
