It's been since before Southern General opened that these three yahoos worked in the same shop at the same time.
As the festival was starting to wind down, we found the old band had somehow landed back in the "garage" they started out together in. 😉

It was a great weekend!
Both shops open Monday 10-6.

I realized something a couple of days ago. I've lived in Arab, Alabama longer than I've lived anywhere else in my life.

That snuck up on me. One day you're the new guy trying to figure out which way the traffic light is going to turn, and the next you look up and this is home. Not the place you live. Home.

I love this town. I love the people. I love the way folks still wave at you from the truck whether they know you or not. And I love our downtown.

I'll be honest with you. Putting on these festivals is stressful. In the days leading up, I mostly dread them. I'm convinced I've forgotten something, because I usually have. And somewhere out there is somebody who isn't happy with how something was handled, and I'm going to hear about it. That's hard for me, because I'm a people pleaser by nature. I'd rather carry every tent on Main Street myself than have one person go home disappointed.

But then the day gets here.

And somewhere between setting up the first table and the first kid running past with a sack full of candy, all of that fades into the background. The worry goes quiet. What's left is the street filling up. Families walking slow. Neighbors stopping to talk in the middle of the sidewalk like there's nowhere else to be. Children laughing loud enough to hear from the end of the block.

That's the whole reason we do it. Not for the perfect event, because there's no such thing. For the full street. For the smiles. For the reminder that a small town still knows how to show up for itself.

So if you see me today looking a little frazzled, just know I'm also about as happy as a man can be.

Come on downtown. We saved you a spot.

Glad to finally make this post!

I've known Jay Stratton for a few years now. When we first met, I had no idea about his background. I just knew he was soft-spoken and genuine, the kind of guy you like right away.

Over a few conversations, I started learning bits and pieces. Military. Federal government. Then more.

Jay created the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) and served as the first Director of the UAP Task Force. He's also credited with replacing the term "UFO" with "UAP" to standardize reporting and take some of the stigma out of it.

He helped create, and is featured in, the documentary The Age of Disclosure, which I've recommended to just about everybody who walks through our door.

The past few weeks he's been all over the national news ahead of his book release. I caught his long segment with Bret Baier on Fox News.

I couldn't wait for the books to get to the shop, so I listened to it on Audible in a day and a half. Over the years I'd asked Jay a lot of questions, and he'd always told me to wait for the book, that it would answer most of them.

He was right.

Both the documentary and the book lay out an effort to keep the truth about intelligent non-human life hidden, not just from the public, but from the very people in our government who need to know so they can protect us if that day ever comes.

(Of course, now I have MORE questions. Ha.)

A lot of y'all have been waiting on us to get Out of the Shadows in. We've got five copies at Southern General. Come get one before they're gone.

And I'm going to do my best to twist Jay's arm into a book signing at the shop once his publicity tour wraps up. Stay tuned. 📚
