Wednesday, June
29, 2016:
There is a piano on the second floor of St. Joseph's Medical Center in
Brainerd. It was provided by the St. Joseph's Center Auxiliary and overlooks the entry to be heard a long ways. Volunteers, like Lynn Olson, come in to play music for visitors and patients alike. Lynn is a retired musician and loves music from the 1950s. He often plays Everybody Loves Somebody, Blue Velvet, Bill Bailey, and ed Roses for a Blue Lady. Lynn played in bands at Club Laguyal, Harold's Club, and others long gone. Not because of Lynn, but just because time passed them by. |

This man has been
a musician his entire life. He wears a tie that tells the
story. Lynn is what people call him, "The Old Music Man." |
That evening, Paula headed down to
Gilbert Lake and discovered a baby turtle. They are common in the
area. She held it up for Mark to see before sending it on its way in the water. |
Lots of people were out enjoying the
waters of Gilbert Lake that night. The water temperature was about
60 degrees. |
It was an overcast sky until late in the day when
clouds opened up to bathe local fishermen in orange color.

Quote of the day: Another great day in Brainerd. Mark | < Back to previous story | Ahead to next story > |
