Mellow Confessions -Again

The Wyrd Mountain Gals ShowMellow Confessions - a RecapEpisode Airs (again) Sunday 4-23-23   7pm
Episode link here:https://wyrdmountaingals.podbean.com/e/mellow-confessions-wyrd-mountain-gals-show/
This conversation is a smooth mellow ride into a different a slower pace of life.  For just a few minutes, the gals have an old-fashioned conversation about "homely things".  
As they speak about bee equipment & the like, we learn a few things about them..
Alicia never goes to convenience stores & doesn't use the atm.  Byron is still balancing her checkbook the old-fashioned way & has never used her crockpot, even though she's had it for over 30 years..
There are stories and laughter--& very little complaining. We hope this episode leaves you smiling!

Cruising down the Parkway in my automobileTrying to get back to my Papy's corn liquor still
As soon as I crossed that Buncombe County lineSomething in the air blew my podcast up high
It was the wisdom from the chicks in the city sticksAnd I knew right then it was gonna be my fix
No need for white lightening to get my start They'd say "lord have mercy!" and "bless your heart"
