My memories of a trip Verny came to Colorado Springs with uncle Greg for a Polka fest that Verny show cased his accordion skills. My dad Vince and I made the trip to the Springs to see the show. Oh my goodness we danced all night. Dinner at Cracker Barrel and many laughs.How double special this trip was, spending time with all three brothers.
Thank you Dad,Verny and Greg
