Last Saturday there was an estate sale in Amite County. While there I noticed a bird's nest on the porch. Mama was getting a little nervous as I was trying to get close enough for a good shot. She was ready to feed her babies.

This weekend was all about the one and only B. B. King. The Silver Star Convention Center in Philadelphia was completely sold out, and B. B. Was on stage for two hours, singing old time favorites and a couple of new ones. He gave a replica of "Lucille" to Choctaw Chief Randall before he began. And of course, the Gazette was there. Did I have good time? Let's just say I am ready to do it all over again.
