That's just exactly what it says We're gonna be saying all day. We're gonna be saying all the old hymns at the old folks, you know used to saying like a old Gather at the river and and bringing in the sheep and church in the wellwood and I don't know all of them because I'm not a church man myself, but this really will be the first year that I have gone to this thing, but Old Flossie come in down here and told me about it And I'm gonna try to go it sounds real real good to me and they're gonna have this They're gonna have dinner on the ground like I said and they're gonna have old Flossie's bringing her famous potato salad and they're having a chicken and and some of them are bringing fish and I know they all Melinda makes them make beans every year. I've heard about them and and Sally is making up what she called ambrosia and I don't know what that is, but I never had no ambrosia, but they say it's good whatever it is I'm gonna try it and Then they're gonna have this group come in from a pal hat and called a pal hat and possums and they're coming in their bluegrass group and they've got a fiddle and a banjo and a mandoline and You know base fiddle and a couple guitars and I think they do a kind of a bluegrass gospel I've just heard them one time and and they they are really good.

They are I heard them sing four books in the Bible you know Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John and That they really get a lot of rhythm into their music and I think everybody will enjoy that I just know you will so I want to let you know that you all are invited and We're gonna have Now the preacher I want to warn you before you come the preacher is is he's dead again drinking and I've heard him, you know preach sermons against drinking a whole bunch of times and so If you bring liquor and you can bring it because there's some that do and of course I do when I go to Something like that I bring a little jug, you know, but I keep it He it I okay. I was telling you about this singing all day and dinner on the grounds are having down here and I was telling you that the preacher is a dead set again drinking and he is and I've heard him preach on it a Bunch of times and he'll just cut the ground out from under anybody So you don't want to you don't want to you can bring some liquor if you want to I you know I do but I keep it here out and what they call, you know, don't know what they know about to see it but You can bring some liquor, but just make sure that you don't Don't let nobody see it and then like I say don't get too close to the preacher because you know He might smell it on your breath and if he did, you know, he'd he'd come in to preaching right there and there's a Some of the sisters in the church that's a you know dead again drinking that and they'll love what they actually will do is get you down if they can and sit on you and then the preacher tries to cast the devil out of you and I've seen him do it, you know a bunch of times and of course their old flossie, you know I told you about flossie. Well, she don't you know, she don't have no tolerance for drinking at all and and she'll go about 300 pounds and if she sets it down on you buddy You won't move until she gets off of you. So I just warning you about that that you bring your liquor, but Be careful about you know Put doing it in public.

That's what I'm saying and make sure you can hold your liquor Nav you can't hold your liquor you need to leave it at home That's all it is to it because they these people down here are church people and they don't like drinking at all So anyway, I told you about it now And I want you to know that all of you are welcome to come down here and enjoy this day with us.
