Prairie Home Companion 30th Anniversary

My husband told me that it was the thirtieth anniversary of the Prairie Home Companion Show on NPR. Prairie Home Companion! I can remember the tenth anniversary; a friend of ours got us a poster and some memorabilia. We've always been fans.

Made me do some thinking..I didn't really know about the show until my sister-in-law told me about it long ago, maybe in 1981 or so....at that time I was only thirty five (ONLY!)...in 1974 I was twenty-eight, the same age as my son is now..and that was the year my father died. So much has happened in my life since that year. So much good and bad. Paul was born in 1975, twenty-nine years ago in July. My niece was born in that year, too. Now she has a little daughter herself. Old beloved radio shows...like old dogs...make you remember maybe too much.


Thunderstorms are being predicted. I'll close this meandering off.
