Bok Tower & Babson Park: A Florida Homecoming in Memory, Music, and Place
from Long Live the ABB: Conversation from the Crossroads of Southern music, history, and culture with historian Bob Beatty · host Long Live the ABB
This past Sunday, I arrived home to Tennessee after a wonderful 7-night, 8-day trip to my home state of Florida to write/record some music, see some friends/family, and gather my thoughts after a pretty hectic 2025. I spent several hours in Lake Wales/Babson Park, Florida—where Dad grew up. I took a lot of photos, which I set to “Detlef Schrempf” by Band of Horses—a song that just felt right to me as I was scrolling the images. These two missives from the road give context to my journey.Greetings from MaconA reflection from the site of some of my favorite childhood memoriesLagniappeJust liberated two posts from behind the paywall.
