Rick Mikulla 43rd Birthday Jacksonville Tour
Saturday, March 17, 2007
Rick Mikulla wanted to do something special for his 43rd Birthday. Being a Huge Ronnie Van Zant and Lynyrd Skynyrd Fan, what better than a trip to Jacksonville, FL to visit all the old Skynyrd historical haunts. Gene Odom picked him up at the airport Saturday morning and the trip began. Here are some of the photos and Rick can tell you the rest.
