Thank You For The Memories

Wow! Its hard for me to imagine not driving up the mountain every morning to host the Morning Show but that is about to happen. I'm Florida bound! My last day on the air will be Sunday August 30th.

Its hard to imagine that nine years have gone by so quickly! Its been an interesting nine years. I started out as the host of the Mid-Day show playing Praise and Worship music. That was fine, I was familiar with that style of music.

But then Monte Palmer informed me that I was going to take over the Morning Show and start playing Southern Gospel music I was flabbergasted! I knew nothing about SG music and didn't really like it. I had a rough time those first few months adjusting to the names and sounds of SG music. It was rough!

A funny thing happened after a few months. I found myself enjoying some of the music. The Bishops, Jeff and Sheri Easter, Booth Brothers, McKameys.. it wasn't that bad after all. Soon I began enjoying a variety of artists. I never could enjoy the twangy, whiney SG music that is heard on some SG stations and when I had a chance I would never play it - sorry if you like that style but ehhhh!

I remember the big worry over Y2K. I was just getting ready to come off the air when USA Network news announced that a plane had struck the World Trade Center. I remember praying and having people call back in as God had answered their prayers - that's priceless.

Its a huge move and I don't have a job lined up as I type this but the situation dictates that I move. Please keep me in your prayers. I will keep you informed of what has become of me on this blog. (The name will probably change but...)

Thank you for all of your encouragement and support over the years. I'm going to miss this ministry and you.
