That’s Why We Do Our Own Thing (Way Out West Africa 2) / SOB 12.02.21

12/03/2021     / / /

All I have to say is that my Big Farmer from Deep Water Acres / Evening Fires is back the virtual chair tonight for a return voyage … a voyage as sweet as all the others he’s taken us on.

But you knew that … Arms out, head back and let’s feel good together.
