On Thursday, Mar 31st, guest speaker Chris Feldt gave a speech on various historical topics related to Pickens County that occurred between the years of 1776 and 1978. His speech covered such topics as: • The Cherokee Indian War • The Land Lottery of 1832 • The Indian Removal • 20th Century Land Development in the area • Historic Arsons and Tornado Outbreaks • The Dude Ranch • The Civilian Conservation Corps in Pickens County There was a wonderful turnout of over 70 Pickens County residents. Chris’s speech was given during the first public meeting held by the Pickens County Historical Society in over five years. The members of the Pickens Historical Society said it was encouraging to see so many people turn out, showing a clear appreciation of history. The society has been working during the pandemic phase to recondition the Old Jail, but now plan more activities and events.

A short piano composition

A cover of Queen's song written by Brian May for Queen's 1977 News of The World Album

A cover of one of my favorite songs from Queen II - Not a long song, but a pretty one.

A first attempt at self-recording this amazing song from Queen's A Day at the Races album. I made a few minor errors in here and took some liberties with the song. I don't have, cannot read and do not own sheet music. I have a keyboard though! Don't be too hard on me. No one is comparable to Freddie! - Maybe Marc Martel :)
