Knees Passed on to Next Generation ... Tom Sr. Retires

Tom Gaskins, legendary founder of Cypress Kneeland and single-handed inventor of the Cypress Knee Industry, was "taken off the road" recently. His son takes the reigns of the Museum, and remembers us as "the guys that got Dad on Johnny Carson." Tom, if only we could have done more. Thanks for all the laughter and the knees...
