My Song Won First Place!


Hello everyone, I competed in the music festival in Guntersville this past 4th of July weekend.

I won first place in the country category with my song "More Than A Name On The Wall". I competed with 28 others in the Country/Bluegrass Category, but I got it. First prize was a nice check, a certificate and a painting by a famous artist who sold one of his paintings for $50,000.00. I wonder what mine would be worth! Channel 48 and 31 were there so we should be on TV. Also, watch the newspapers ... there will be things in the paper about it. I'm really thrilled with it. I was hoping for it, but you never know. It's a lot of fun and down right exciting right now.

I thought I had a shot but the competition was pretty stiff. Our friend Ken Cooper put this video on Facebook.

Thanks to everyone for all your support.
