Sweet Home Alabama 2-24-09

We had a very exclusive lunch one day on the ship. You could only sit at our table if you were from Alabama! Thanks to our friends Leon and Anne from Montgomery, we had a great time. A wonderfully talented musician named Stephen Kane was on the ship as an entertainer. When he was on the stage he asked if anyone was from Alabama, to his surprise he heard some cheers, of course! He said in all his years of asking, he never ran across anyone that really WAS from Alabama when he asked, so we included him in our luncheon as he is from Ft. Payne! Small world for sure!! He was very interesting to talk to and has had quite the career. He comes back to Alabama a couple of times a year but stays on the road and on the high seas performing. He plays the piano the way everyone would aspire. He has energy that comes out as he plays, personality, and talent that should not all be in one person! We enjoyed meeting him and watching his shows. We are certainly proud he is from Alabama!
