Prairie Lope Companion

We'll be taking breaks this week from editing Ace's August trip to post from the Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson. Saturday, Ace visited with Garrison Keillor after a live broadcast of National Public Radio's Prairie Home Companion.




Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius was a guest star in the broadcast. Prairie Home Companion cast member Sue Scott is seen at right.


The show was a sell out; here, audience members sing along.


Kansas Jazz performer Kelly Hunt, always popular in the Hutchinson area, also guested.


Dig Garrison's shoes.


Violinist Elana Fremerman - between her, Hunt, Sebelius and Scott, this was an attractive stage.


"Powdermilk Biscuits" is a fictional sponsor of the program.


Keiller with part of his band and the set for News from Lake Wobegon in the background.


A familiar Keillor gesture.
