Country Jam

Country Jam was fantastic once again this year. I wasn't able to go on Thursday but heard it was a great night. Friday was an amazing line-up. It started with Rocket Club and The JaneDear Girls. Local guy Joe Diffie came on stage at 5:00 and wowed the crowd with several favorites. Little Big Town didn't disappoint either. By the time that Martina McBride took the stage at 10:00, the crowd was more than warmed up. Martina was passionate about every song she sang. She put her all into every single note. The audience was on their feet dancing and enjoying themselves immensely. McBride strong vocals.
Saturday was just as great even though we had to endure some of Mother Nature's wrath. The gate's opening was delayed by the first storm. Jason Jones hit the stage and got everyone excited about the night to come. David Nail was next and played some favorites to a very appreciative crowd. A second storm hit which ended up canceling LoCash Cowboys. This left many in the audience quite disappointed but this would be fixed soon after. The Zac Brown Band came on stage about 7:30. They played all their popular songs and some that were not so well known. They also brought three extra performers with them. Country Jam came up with a plan that made the Jammers very happy. LoCash would come on stage right after Zac Brown. They rocked the whole grounds. Zac Brown even joined them before the night was over.

A piece of Winona's history makes it's final journey.

An old Fire Steam Engine had been scrapped years ago. But the scrap yard chose to store it for 60 years rather than destroy it. In 1992, they donated it back to the City of Winona. It made it's final journey last Tuesday from the fire station to the History Center. After a bit of squeezing to get it through the doors, it now sits in the entrance for all to see. historic journey
