This picture arrived in my email today from the California Sun newsletter. There was an article showing "glamping" (before there was a word for it) around the turn of the 20th century. I wonder what tune she's playing.

Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
