Many thanks to Barb Russell for inviting us to their new home for several hours if excellent food, good friends and spontaneous entertainment by The Drifters!

We met so many new people, and thoroughly enjoyed each and every one. Russell Henry is one of the original Drifters and has been with them in the music industry for 50+ years!

Also present were Richard, Chuck and Vernon. I so enjoyed watching them interact with each other. It is obvious they are all close friends who care deelpy for one another as they share their memories. Their laughter is infectious!

Barb and Russell's beautiful home was decorated for Christmas, and it looked like a layout for a Southern Living Magazine cover!

The office contains many awards, such as the "2014 Excellent Pioneer Award" the cover of Rolling Stone, Times Square N.Y. Lots of gold records showing their billboard hits and so many statues and other honors. The effet is awesome!

And if you think their successful music careers have gone to their heads, I can assure you, there is not one pretentious Drifter in the bunch!
