Today, driving by Boone Hall Plantation in Mt. Pleasant SC, my best friend/assistant noticed a sign that had us immediately on the phone with my husband. Larger than life - billboard sized to be exact - was a sign that stated that Boone Hall would be hosting a BBQ and Bluegrass festival that would feature Ralph Stanley & The Cliff Mountain Boys. Ok, to be truthful I didn't know who this was until she said, "You know, that band that sings the song that your husband constantly watches on O' Brother Where Art Thou?" Ok... now I knew exactly what she was talking about!
Apparently they are combining this with some serious barbeque... Now we are talking!! Game on! It's now scheduled tightly into my datebook! Here's the day's itinerary below:
