I had a crazy weekend. I ended up flying to Phoenix to check a friend into rehab. It's not something I ever thought I'd have to do but it's clearly what he needed. I think this Jason Boland song (some of the lyrics changed to fit his story) is perfect for the occasion.

Intro - 0:00
Song - 1:40

Good on you for helping your friend. Wow, a well chosen, deeply felt and well performed song.

  Thanks John. I think it was one of those days that was awful at the time but a year from now will be thought of much differently.

True friends are willing to do the difficult things; they go the extra mile! Thanks for the song, but, more important, thanks for the example of loving your brother.

Have a blessed Sunday Kale!
