Starstruck...Legendary Steve Young in Concert!!

Along the junkin' road we sometimes have the opportunity to hear great music! (another passion!!) This past weekend was one of those times! The legendary, singer, songwriter, guitarist Steve Young was in concert in a local establishment!




On stage...





Mr. Young's most recognized song is from the Eagles 'Seven Bridges Road' (which amazingly enough was a true road out of Montgomery, Alabama!!)  Other notable ones are 'Lonesome, On'ry and Mean' and 'Montgomery in the Rain' (which has a huge cult following in Europe of all places!)



Steve Young was born in Georgia, raised throughout the South, lived in NYC Greenwich area, settled for a time in California and was a vital force behind the "outlaw movement" that gave support to Waylon and Hank Jr.



Pictured in this photo is Jimmy Warren, Young, and Herb Trotman (not outlaws!)



Well ya never know where the road will take my friend and me...


Have a Blessed Day!! And see ya down the junkin' road!!

Good Eats...on the junkin' road!

My friend and me spent a productive day fluffing, adding and arranging in our three "spots"! Ya know when one item goes out another will never fit in its exact place!!

All this working made us very, very hungry! We decided to try a new place in our area; "Joe's Italian", a locally owned and operated neighborhood restaurant. And, what can I say...DELISH-O!!!


My friend and me ordered one of the daily specials. It comes with a choice of soup or salad...







Sorry, I didn't get a photo of the bread basket! (it was refilled twice...what can I say, we had really worked hard all morning...)



And yes the main course was as delicious as it looks...




Sadly there was no more room for 'Mamma's Dessert'! But the choices were heavenly; cannoli, Italian cream, zebra cake, and the list goes on! Weeelll, there will be another day...


If you ever find yourself in the Alabaster, Alabama area and looking for excellent Italian food then head on over to Joe's Italian. Check out their website: www.joesitalianonline.com


Have a Blessed Day!! And see ya down the junkin' road!!
