One week till ‘Cold Turkey At The Eagle’
It’s been a crazy time since last I posted. Trying to shut down the garden and get a compost pile made…all with very little help. Saying goodbye to my students was awful. When I’m not in the garden frantically ripping out broccoli stalks, I’m spending all the time I can with my new friends. Last night I stayed up till 7 at a picking party on an old bus with my newest friends…Clark County, The Grassholes, and other fine, fine bluegrass and old-timey musicians. Boot and I even danced a little in the three square feet of floor space that was left open. I can’t wait to get back to Michigan and assemble my own group so I can bring them up here to play some festivals with these folks. I hope they come to my going away party next week. I’m cooking a turkey and we’re all meeting at the Gold Eagle in Ester. Then I fly out the next morning.
