Jimmy Buffett
My favorite picture of him.
Not a lot more to say other than rest in peace. I was lucky to see him several times through the years including PB Scott's, Walnut Creek and even Carter Finley stadium where I caught a pick, only to have a drunken old hag pestering me with: "he threw it to me." I finally gave it to her with my best wishes.
I met Jimmy when I was checking out of a Charlotte hotel the morning after we got married. I told him I'd seen him at PB Scott's, he said he'd played at Carowinds the night before, biggest crowd he had ever seen.
Good guy, and probably our generation's Mark Twain. I still enjoy his poetry and music. Good going.
