A last word from Booth for this leg….

Ahhh… It is great to be home! But, it was great to be in other’s homes – places of worship in Florida, Georgia and Alabama. Meeting folks is always great, and seeing different towns, sanctuaries and coffee shops is also cool. St. Augustine is beautiful! We stayed at the Hilton on the bay. This is the very site where Dr. King held protests, was arrested and made international headlines in the civil rights struggle (it was not the Hilton back then).
We were in Augusta, Georgia where one of the most famous golf courses on earth is vigilantly secured (you and I can’t even look at it).
We visited guitar shops in just about every city – Joe Hand purchased two nice instruments for very little (Joe wins the editor’s frugal award for his cost effective but inspiring purchases, JTC), JMT and I found a couple of new stringed friends. John Michael had already COMPOSED a dittie on his new axe before we even got home from the shop, Annie’s Guitars in Savannah, Georgia.
John Martin buys cool things everywhere. He got a new shirt in St Augustine, wore it at the concert with the store owners in attendance. By the way, we think Mr. Gretsch came to our concert in Savannah -THE Mr. Gretsch. He was humble, affirming and liked JMT’s “White Falcon” from his family of guitars. The people who helped us on tour were great – in all three states. I played “I Will Choose Christ”, “Slipping” and “Here I AM” on most nights. I honored Our Lady a couple of times by singing “My Lady”, a song of love and devotion. Go to SpiritandSong.com and listen to audio clips of my new record The Best of Tom Booth. See what you think… or buy a couple!
