I was blessed to see PHC recorded in 2004 at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. It was Father's Day weekend. The show was recorded on my father's birthday - June 18. It was a special gift from my wife to see this show live. I miss PHC and Garrison Keillor on Saturday nights. Thank you Mr. Keillor for all of the stories and laughs.

I remember vividly that wild "Day of the sleigh" as a child and the odd thing that no one talks about anymore is that 1 Holstein cow that was seen riding on the front of the sleigh. The Lendersons thought it might be one of their cows and the Swensons was sure it was one of their cows but a cow with a shocked face flying by at over 65 mph is kind of hard to identify when you are keeping your head low and out of danger. The really strange part was that later all of the cows were accounted for. Which means one of those Holstein cows went on a 65 mile per hour ride of its life, circling the town where it had only grazed peacefully up until that point. Never mind the saying "if walls could talk" I always wondered what that cow would have to say about it's "Day of the Sleigh" whole adventure.

We used to toboggan in a field at a Vermont Holstein dairy farm & together with the milkman’s five daughters 😮 we careened past many startled heifers but never once did a cow want a lift back to the barn 😂
@dandaman27537 ай бұрын
@@caroleminke6116 And that sure enough proves that one Holstein cow, who took that wild circling and jumping snow sleigh joyride, somehow got the word out to all other Holstein cows that any sleigh rides are not to be trifled with. That also explains the obviously above normal amount of loud mooing that was heard from all the cows in Lake Wobegon area for at least 5 years after that day of the sleigh.

Yep...came from San Francisco to Brainerd, Mn to visit with my best friend for a month. After spending a LONG time in the air because the landing gear wouldn't come down. When we reached the farm, all i wanted was a stiff drink! Went to store...clerk REFUSED to sell me anything with alcohol!! He figured out within minutes of our arrival who i was staying with. "Nope..Mr. blah blah don't allow NO ALCOHOL in his home!" I swore i would drink it on the side of the road, that Mr blah blah would NEVER KNOW! He responded " nope...cuz I'd know miss!" Couldnt argue with that.

Glad to have found the channel. This Companion was my companion every Sunday that I drove my little red Ford Pinto wagon from my little hometown to Atlanta for college. I timed my departure after a wonderful home cooked dinner so I could listen while the radio reception was clear. I had the chance to leave all of it behind and start a new life in California after graduation but the pull of my little hometown and the family there was too great. I ended up halfway between Atlanta and the farm. A compromise that has been a blessing in many unforeseen ways these past 30 years. Thanks for the memories.

I don't know the answer, but maybe they could see themselves as the characters, whether it be the citizens of Lake Wobegone or the people from the convention. Old stories are in every small town about when 'so and so' was X years old. People from outside that community may not understand the personalities or how much young people can change to become adults that they thought they knew well.
