Day 23 - Breakfast at the loghouse, Wayne Henderson and Final day at Galax

---

Friday

Today was a big day as well.

Martha and Jackson took me to the loghouse to have breakfast, where I had my first "Biscuits and Gravy". It was nice, but we ordered a lot, so I took a doggy bag home for later.

After that we visited Wayne Henderson, famous guitar maker in the area. Fortunately he was home and we got to check out his workshop and play one of his guitars. He was really nice guy and great guitar picker.

After a bit of a rest, we got ready to attend what would be my final visit to Galax Fiddler's Convention. Only Martha and I would go as Jackson and the others were busy. It proved to be a really great day of watching the bands, meeting some more of Martha's friends, picking, and just soaking up the great atmosphere.

I've got some great photos (and a lot of them) in this entry, so I hope you enjoy them.

Great scenery

Wayne's Mandolin
We were expecting to see a guitar, but Wayne was working on a mandolin. He makes them every now and then.

Guitar ribs bending machine
Well that's what I call it, not sure of the technical term.

Waiting for the next step

A visitor
Wayne constantly has visitors from all over dropping by. I think these people were from Indiana

Beautiful Lookout
Martha suggested we check out a nice lookout near Wayne's house.
