22. One of my fave songs of theirs

Should be the soundtrack for some "falling in love" movie montage, in my opinion.

As to the placard for the "Hang on Little Tomato" song, that's a picture of Thomas Lauderdale with his adoptive father Kerby when the family drove across the country in 1980 to settle in Portland. They were out on the Great Plains, and Kerby held Thomas up for the "flying baby" shot in the wind. Kerby would later serve as my pastor for 10 years until his retirement, and Thomas could occasionally be prevailed upon to play at our Christmas Eve service.
