I’ve been back in Michigan the last few days, attending to some family business. In doing so, I had to drive to the western part of the state, about a two and a half to three hour trip one way. Those kinds of drives always afford an opportunity for some quality listening sessions, and this one was no exception. Upon our return back east to my hometown, I heard both of these songs, ones that I haven’t heard in quite a while, and each brought a big smile to my face.
