John and I just returned from a two week trip to Seattle. He had back surgery there, and is recovering nicely. On our way home, we made a stop in Spokane to pick up a saddle for a friend. We met our contact in the parking lot of Molly's Restaurant (a Spokane favorite). His name was Dick Taylor. After loading the saddle and other accoutrements, including a branding iron, we chatted awhile. Both of us had noticed Dick was wearing a Taylor Guitar jacket. I asked him if he was connected with the company. He replied, "My son IS Taylor Guitars". Well, we were floored! You just never know who you're going to meet.
