This episode continues the story begun in episode 052: Postcards from Janet.
In that episode, my cousin Janet sent me a postcard to tell me she was coming to visit in April.
Well, it’s April now and Janet came with her two kids, Buddy and Eddie.
I was going to take the kids to the playground, but it rained! I had to think of something — and I remembered something my Uncle Jerry — Janet’s dad — did with us on a rainy day a long time ago when we were kids.

So, this is the next part of episode 52: Postcards from Janet. It’s about how my cousin Janet and her two kids came to stay at my house. Heres what happened.
So you know, I live in Tennessee, and Janet and her two kids live in Minnesota. Those places are far, far apart.

So Janet has two daughters – two girls. Buddy is six years old, and Eddie is four. Eddie and Buddy are named after rock and roll stars from the 1950s (Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly). Janet loves rock and roll music, you see. In fact, rock and roll music is why she’s coming to visit. She’s a musician who plays rock and roll music. She plays the guitar and the drums and also sings all at the same time. Her band name is Planet Janet.
