Talkin’ Vaccine Injury Blues

Broken down ranch
By Dan Burns

EXTERIOR: Picnic area in front of the ranch house.  In the foreground, a makeshift  stage for Hope Ranch Productions.  On the stage, a donations sign:  Needed: $250 Grand.  Donated: $50.  
JOSH, a one-man band of harmonica and banjo, is singing to the camera, Bob Dylan-style.  VAN GO is filming.  Parents are seated at picnic tables around the stage, celebrating the Grand Opening.  

JOSH: (to the tune of “Talking  World War III Blues.” )

I started this ranch
A few months ago
For kids leavin’ school
And no place to go.

Dan, Hope Ranch was such an inspirational endeavor. Is there anyone out there with fund-raising smarts who could help get it going again?
