I’m from New Hampshire and love deer hunting as well as anyone out your way. Two friends, David Hinsley and Alan Brown told me all about your show…sure wish we had you on the radio in New Hampshire and in the northern Adirondack woods of New York.

Al always listens to you from his UP deer camp as well as from his other hunting location in Wisconsin. Please say hello to Al. He kills some big deer.

Your friend from New Hampshire,
Jim Mayers

Hi Elmer,
Thanks for taking my call recently, I know you are very busy with the radio and I must tell you that you are doing a fabulous job with the program. Every One loves your show!
I must tell you also that last Saturday night we (my sister and family) were invited to a country music jamboree just down the road from where I am staying. It is in Green Hills and the neighbors put this thing together every once in a while and invite their friends and neighbors to sing along. It was great!! They have some real talent here and sing many of the American traditional songs. They had a fiddler there also and I went to shake his hand after their part of the program was finished and discovered that he was the fiddler for the one and only Slim Dusty. This guy is amazing to say the least. He is considered the very best in all of Australia and it was a great pleasure to meet him personally. The entire evening was great and it was over by 10:00 and every one went their way. I happened to meet Stuart Watson, the fiddler for Slim, and given the idea that I listen very carefully when talking with Aussies, it is hard to determine their actual comment sometimes. I believe he said his name as Stuart Watson so I will go with that for now. If I learn differently I will correct my mistake in the next letter. Simply said– This guy is A REMARKABLE person on the fiddle and it was such a pleasure to meet and hear him. I thought of you frequently through out the evening. Thank you again for taking the time for my rambling here and also for playing a tune by Johnny Cash for your friend and mine, Ben Livingston. He so loves Johnny Cash. I will write again later and if I can I will introduce you to my friends and family here through the media of the Internet. It is 8:30 on Monday morning here as I write this to you.

Best wishes,
Wally Patterson

Elmer – I live in St. Louis, Missouri, but my wife’s family lives up in the UP, a great Yooper family in Palmer and Munising (Holly is a GREAT fan).

I would like to request Brad Paisley’s “She’s Everything”. My wife and I have been separated for most of the last 12 months due to her deployment to Central America which came within months of my return from Afghanistan. I love my wife more than anything, and would just like to see if you can play this dedicated to my Captain, Erin Melissa. She is my “everything” and I just wanted to remind her and tell the world.

Thanks for keeping the good music flowing, Elmer!

Thanks Again!

Hey Mr. Aho,
You might remember me as Dick Florence back in the middle 70′s when you taught at Gwinn. At one point I was taking 3 art classes a day from you. Well, it paid off, I’m an award winning animator, illustrator and cartoonist here in Denver and I wanted to say ‘Thanks’ and am glad to hear you’re still alive and kicking.

P.S. I has a radio show here in Denver for a couple of years on the
Classic Rock station. What a coincidence.

Take care!
Richard (Dick) Florence

Hi Elmer! I finally got hooked up on the I-net – WHEW! What a task. My computer is old & slow just like me. I really enjoy Reba, Dolly & Billie Jo Spears Trio song. I also like Alan Jackson, Patsy Cline, and some of the old – old – old timers like Bing Crosby & Hank Williams. Hope to hear some of those this Saturday! Keep ‘em comin’!!!
