Saturday afternoon and evening, September 2
This was Nsimba’s 2017 birthday gift. He and our granddaughter Elizabeth arrived from Maine the night before. (Photo without flash)

Southern Raised opened the afternoon concert.
They do bluegrass gospel, but are classically trained and brought the audience to their feet with a Beethoven piece.
Aaron Wilburn was back with his comedy.
Legecy Five
They have a very talented pianist.
Jimmy Fortune is one of my favorite singers.
During evening break we walked across the street (busy Route 30 East) to Cracker Barrel for supper.
Tribute Quartet opened the evening program.

For some reason I forgot to take a picture of Larry Gatlin.

The Hoppers closed the evening program. I think this was Nsimba’s favorite group. He loves Southern Gospel music but had never been to a live concert. It was fun taking him to his first concert. Knowing that he was blessed, was a blessing to us.
What a pleasant birthday gift for Nsimba!
It was fun listening to his response after the program.
