As Doc Watson once put it, we're southbound!

Posted on 03:22 by Unknown
Full services return on the morrow: In our view, Doc Watson put it best. To see a performance of the whole song, just click here:
Southbound, she's burnin' the ground and I don't mean maybe
Sure am glad I caught this train cause I'd like to see my baby
I've been lonesome, long to see them hills that I come from
I'm going back to spend a little time
Where a friend's a friend when you ain't got a dime
I'm southbound.
In our case, no "baby" is involved; the only "hill" would be Bolton Hill. The part about friends and dimes doesn't seem to apply.

But the doctor got the general idea, as he so frequently did. Those basic points established, full services return on the morrow.
