Note: This was my daughters first festival road trip. On Saturday the outer edges of hurricane Dennis
came ashore and disrupted out fine time. The wind noise was bad and the camping was worse. We had
a fine time but far from perfect. At one point you can hear the crickets join in the chorus. At another you
can hear my daughter quite upset and ready to head back to camp. I insisted we wait until the performance
was over. On Sunday we decided to cut out early at head for Gatlinburg, TN which offered many things to
delight a four year old. I should mention that track 12 on the late show I found offensive. I'm quite sure
this bit isn't something they did outside the South. My little girl thoght it was quite funny and we had to
have a talk afterwords about how this might of made a few of her friends in school feel. Feel free to leave
it off the disc. I plan to.
