Photo Essay: On The Road In Search of Old Time Country Music

ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive 4:46 pm Wed Jan 20, 2010

Again, I have to apologize for a self-indulgent post… When I was a kid, my dad would haul the projector and screen out of the closet and put us all to sleep with endless carousels full of vacation slides. Blogging is a much better way to share our everyday stories. (If only because of brevity of posts!)

I've recently been on a pilgrimage, along with my long-time pal Richie, to see as many icons of old time country music as I can before they are all gone. Along the way, we've had a lot of interesting roadside adventures. I tried to capture them in these photo essays. I hope you are more interested in them than I was in my dad's slides!
