Five on Friday Set 141
Posted: Friday, September 28, 2012 by Travis Cody inThere was really no other choice I could make for Set 141 this week. I grew up listening to Andy Williams. His voice always felt like home to me.

I saw this on Facebook yesterday. Andy was almost exactly one year older than my Dad. I loved Andy! I grew up listening to him and watching him on TV. Dang it. Now I may have to go to iTunes to download some of my favorites.
Have a lovely weekend, Trav!
