Recreational Vehicals are an important part of summer bluegrass festivals. The RV industry has made changes making today's units lighter and more affordable. The Wall Street Journal, Dec. 27, 2010, ran an article that highlights changes in the industry. Read about it http://tinyurl.com/26rnfc2
The Aliner Classic pictured here is a slight 1,530# with a gross weight capacity of 2,000#. It can be towed by most any vehicle. Other RV companies offer similarly light weight products.

Old Time Jam date change
The Firehouse Tea and Coffee Café 1245 East State Blvd., Fort Wayne, IN 46805 (260) 444-4071 is closed on New Years Day, so we will NOT be jamming this weekend, Jan 1. We will be meeting two weeks after that on Jan 15.
I hope we get a big crowd because rumor has it that someone from the paper is coming to do a feature on the café and our jam as well.
We are still committed to strictly Southern Old Time music. I’ve attached a sample tune, which I hope to do before each session, as a suggested tune of the week to learn. This is a 1924 record of Old Liza Jane by Uncle Am Stuart (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Am_Stuart, http://www.appalachianhistory.net/2010/02/liza-jane.html).
