I only live about 35 miles from the Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, Big Bopper crash site located about 5 miles north of Clear Lake, Ia. . . . and you know how it is when you live so close to something and never seem to visit. I finally decided today was the day. Glad to report the Memorial Site is still in good shape.
It was a very peaceful fall day and a man from Mass. pulled up to visit at the same time. It is located about a half mile or slightly less off of a gravel road and not marked well.
There were several fresh tracks in the dirt so it appears that this site is visited often. I thought fans might like to know the site is in fine shape yet.
