At Sandy Lee Songfest in Kentucky with American Idol runner-up HunterGirl

With Gerald Smith (George Strait) and Tony Arata (Garth Brooks) at the Sandy Lee Songwriters Festival in Henderson, Kentucky

How cool to get to stand between the writers of my two favorite Garth Brooks songs...Buddy Mondlock (Every Now And Then) and Cyndi Limbaugh-Torres (In Lonesome Dove) For those of you who have ever heard me play "Grandma & Jack", Cyndi is also a co-writer on that one
