I must admit, it was a definite benefit to be in the Mitten beneath the starlit skies of the 10th anniversary of Hoxeyville 2012.  Michigan people have manners that transmit an infinite welcome.  Their wit submitted to my ultimate delight as I attended my first ever Hoxeyville Music Festival.  Ten years of Hoxeyvillians got together over the August 16 – 19th weekend and threw an exquisite party to celebrate the beauty of a tight knit famil
