After waking a little late yesterday morning, I opted out of the Everglades Chapter of the Antique Motorcycle Club of America's (AMCA) Turkey Run around Lake Okeechobee. The decision proved beneficial as I enjoyed the better part of the day with three of my grandchildren at the house riding four-wheelers and eating the Christmas cookies that they baked with my wife.
Feeling a bit fidgety toward the end of the day, We decided to head around the corner to the monthly blues festival held at the "World Famous" Buckingham Blues Bar. Arriving late, we missed the first several bands, but caught most of the set by headliner, Blues Stone. Hailing from Fort Lauderdale, Blues Stone delivered a raw, very genuine good rockin' blues sound. We enjoyed the band from a bench close to the fire pit since a cold front had moved in and it was a little chilly for southwest Florida.
Enjoy this clip Blue Stone performing "Soul Shine":
After grooving to the sounds of Blue Stone, we headed back to the house to steam a half dozen blue crabs and saute a filet of snook, left for us by a friend who had attended the blues festival. Thanks Gary, there's nothing like fresh seafood!
