Standin' on a Rock!

One of my favorite Ozark Mountain Daredevils tunes "Standin' on a Rock" was going through my head as I ran today. These guys came out of Springfield in the early seventies and actually were pretty big in their time. I was just a punk ninth grader when they first came on the scene. We'd hang out side the Hippie clubs downtown listening to the music. Here 'tis-
The 12.7 miles went good! Spring is here! Averaged 9:55's
Felt pretty good, but the cold is still nagging me. I noticed a significant dragging today, but the song stirred strength! I'm standin' on the rock !!Peace!

I actually went to one of their concerts - that's how old I am!
Thanks for the memories : )

I listened and now know why you ran your 12 so fast -- you were trying to get away from the music!! :-D

Just kidding. I wouldn't want a steady diet of it, but I do like bluegrass. Went to Mars Hill College in western NC and they had the Bascomb Lamar Lunsford Bluegrass Festival each year. Great fun!
