Love is sweeping the country

....or it could be indigestion.

Anyway, today is Valentine's Day....while most of you are celebrating love with your significant others, I'll be celebrating today watching the Daytona 500!

However, we'll dissect the meaning of love courtesy of this week's Welk episode...Love Songs from 1980.


In this episode.....Bobby uses Elaine to mop the stage floor


Jim Turner is hungry for some Little Green Apples....


....and here is a successful encylopedia saleman, as demonstrated by Arthur Duncan


All this and more, hosted by Mary Lou Metzger

A very nice and pleasant episode, one that you can watch with either your sweetheart. Even if you don't have that special someone in your life (like yours truly)....make today very special in your own unique way.

I have, watching NASCAR stars Jimmie Johnson, Kyle Busch, Jeff Gordon, Greg Biffle and Dale Jr trade bumpers at the Super Bowl of Stock Car Racing.

Keep a song in your heart and the pedal to the medal....racing stock cars and in life!

This date in Welk history

On this Valentine's Day back in 1971.....

A musical family match was made in heaven, or in this case Hollywood....

Bobby Burgess married Kristi Floren, one of Myron Floren's five daughters.

Today, they have been married for 38 years!

And have given Grandpa Myron four children. Daughters Becki and Wendi, plus Sons Robert and Brent.

Happy Anniversary and Happy Valentine's Day!
