Albuquerque

May 3, 2013 - Albuquerque. Slept in Gallup last night and found out when I tried to check in that I'd left my Driver's License on a copier in Las Vegas.  That was something to figure out.  But the good folks at Kinko's FedEx there have solved all my problems - forwarding it to Asheville where I will catch up to it next week and providing me a scanned copy to assist should I have an unwanted encounter with the law!

Despite adversity, it's shaping up to be a good road trip.  Given that some of the proposed events were cancelled, the announcement of the book and the generosity of friends has prompted some more music and poetry possibilities along the road. I am always open to your suggestions of listening room series, house concerts or other possible venues - so don't hesitate to propose one or two. I have a habit of getting to places... And some new songs are emerging - could be a very good trip indeed.

Some good responses from yesterday's blog - one suggestion overheard on NPR (as reported by my friend Lauren Horn) is analog storage on a stainless steel disc. Interesting... And what of other subjects? Lunch with long-time Kerrville friend Clara Boling at Bailey's on the Beech - closing May 20 (Clara is a brilliant blogger - you can catch her rich wit and creativity at her blog here). But I am going to have get out and on the road if I am to make tomorrow's wedding....
