HA! That was me. 74 Ford Econoline, paneled, carpeted, big Marantz box speakers, 8 track with a storage rack that ran the length of the drivers side wall and a bean bag. We were stylin'. CB handle was "Tin Can".

Think I threw out all of the Buffett tapes by the time we left Florinda. Also pretty heavy on Willy, Waylon and David Bromberg as I recall.

Ohhh David Bromberg. He was touring again a few years ago. Such a lovely man.

Just looked him up — still touring. He has dates in the Northeast and Florida coming up.

You don't look old, but in 70's pics it's hard to tell people's ages.
