You really had to be there. Spokanistan '07. A late May Saturday morning in Joan and Brent Burgers backyard. It is 10.00 am approx, and it is chaos. The place is full and people are still arriving, finding space to set up tables, bringing in boxes of insulators. Others are clustered around empty tables waiting to see what comes out of these boxes. I'm walking past one table when someone asks, "How much are the Dolly Partons?" I'm stopped cold in my tracks, as I'm familiar with Dolly Parton and her ah, big voice. I enquire of the young lady behind the table, "What are Dolly Partons ?" She picks up 2 Boch U-928 insulators, and places them upon her chest. Question answered !!! Oh, yes, those Dolly Partons. I bought one . It now resides in the Insulator Field in Merritt, B.C. Every insulator has it's story. You just heard my Dolly Parton story, and I'll see you next year at Spokanistan '08
