FFP Note re: Cohran event: Great fun, lots of music, fun things to bid on, plenty to eat and lots of good fellowship. Cochran does this every year in his backyard (plenty big) donating his time and efforts to get quality music and involvement from the community (auction items, last time around Chic-fil-A was there along with some other names you'd recognize but we can't remember, etc.). I'm sitting in a chair my husband and I bid on and won as I type this. Doing good and having fun at the same time, what could be better?
