Fruits of his labor

Our American values are not luxuries, but necessities— not the salt in our bread, but the bread itself.
~Jimmy Carter


I saw something about the President Carter Legacy Collection (guitars made from trees he planted) and it sent me down this path for Music Monday. Something so poetic about planting a tree that becomes a conduit for song:





Didn't realize until recently that the Allman Brothers had done a fundraising concert for Jimmy Carter in the early days of his first run for president. How cool is that??

Since Jimmy Carter was a very special president and since the Allman Brothers Band was a very special band, this was a double treat for me! So cool!

And cool too about that guitar made from a tree he planted.

Thanks, Tab, for a wonderful blog entry. :-)
