Uncle Dan Podcast

My Dad sent me this podcast today. This is my uncle and his band Daddy Squeeze Trio in a recording just before they visited us in Chicago. It was great to sit back and listen to with a hot cup of coffee. (Beware of much toe tapping!)

Youtube is a wonder of wonders. If I had remembered my camera I would have taken pics of the gorgeous tulips (there are even upside down ones in the vases!) and the beautiful bride and groom. So make certain to take a moment to check them all out here:
