Bonus Episode - MaryThunder Road 0
Apr 14, 2017
With all that is going on, I thought we could use a good laugh.  Ross Murray wrote a great column giving Mary’s version of the song Thunder Road.  It made me laugh and I couldn’t resist mashing the song and his column together.  I asked Karen who was my cohost on Storming the Castle to read Mary’s part.  I hope I did the column and the song justice.  I know that Karen is great as Mary.   Hope you enjoy this and it helps to make you smile.
