I hope I can get my hubby to do that with me one day. We'll see ;-)<br /><br />Thanks for providing some clarity into the old song "My Old Kentucky Home". I've heard it performed in older movies, and it did seem to have certain negative connotations. I didn't know that Carol Hines had the lyrics changed. <br /><br />Paul Robeson's bass voice is amazing! I also like his version of "Old Man River".<br /><br />Happy New Year!Brandi Boddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08017741568841209088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088468378019844860.post-33027561051643100402012-01-02T12:53:05.504-06:002012-01-02T12:53:05.504-06:00What an awesome gift!

My family has a farm in southeastern KY and everytime I go there, I am struck by the sky's inky blackness and glittering diamonds. It is beautiful!<br /><br />I didn't know that President Lincoln had a Confederate brother-in-law, and a Confederate general, no less! It really drives home the anguish that must have been on both sides of the army as they fought against not strangers, but family. <br /><br />Happy New Year, Loree!
