Thanks, Denbo, Dave, Andries and Rick.  I wrote this semi- true song 7 or so years back and did it infrequently.  Lately, I kind of polished it a bit.  I have just 6-7 songs that I think are pretty good and some that are okay and some that are crap.  I do have a new one in the works.

Great story humor and blues! Agree with the fellows, great new vintage feel song, one of your very best? Never underestimate the Uncle, always a trick or two up his sleeve.

It's all yours, Dave.  Thanks.  If you get around to it, I would love to hear it.  This is a semi-true story from about 1962 or 63.  A long trek to visit my cousin Orville Ray.

The Best Uncle John. Perfect. I want to learn that one.
