Hi. A couple weeks ago, we went to the Brown County UkeFest. (See previous post). Our friend, Suitcase Sam recorded our friend, Michael August, and me, playing Folsom Prison Blues-Mike style- then. Mike played a Bonanza Baritone, and did some pretty cool slide work on it…

She’s so Talented…
Hi there… So, my lovely wife has painted for years, but, she’s taken a class that has changed the way she paints. Here are a couple examples…
A British Tune/Show…
I sooooo apologize, if I have posted this before, but, 1, I love this tune. 2, I love the way we did it. 3, we love the show….
It’s ‘The Detectorists’, a UK show, that is kinda like watching the most beautiful paint in the world, drying… But amazing….
Anyway, here is our take on the theme song…. A beautiful tune…
What Will Become of Me?

Again….Good times. Good friends. Great tunes. Lucky to be alive….
Fun at Funky Frets…
Been a couple weeks since I posted. Been busy getting ready for this adventure… We left at 3am cst, for Pennsylvania and a ton of fun…
Spent the night in Somerset, Pa, cuz it’s too difficult to drive all the way in one day…
Made it to Pottstown/Boyertown the next day, and the fun begins…
It was a great trip/adventure. Kelly, and Funky Frets killed it…. So many good friend, and fun… Kurt, Kendra, Cheryl, Pete/Dee, Diane, Sharla, Louise, and 182 other close/new friends… And now, onto more fun!!
Spooky!
We’ve been decorating for the holidays…
A Frank Lloyd Wright Day
Hi there…. So, today is our 27th wedding anniversary, and, to ‘celebrate’ we went on a tour of the two Frank Lloyd Wright sites within 1/2 hour of our home…. The first, is the Laurent House… The only design he did for special needs…
Then, we went over to Belvidere, Il, to see the Petit Chapel, one of Wrights early designs
We are lucky to have two distinct examples of his work, so close to home….
Two Rivers Fest, and, Straw Sculpting Fest
Hey kids… So, we have a couple gigs this weekend… We play Friday at 4:30pm, and, Saturday morning, at 11:35am, at the Two Rivers Bluegrass Festival. So will several other amazing musicians. It’s free. Come out, it’ll be fun! And, to make it more interesting for me, I will play bass for/with the amazing Grass Attack, at 5ish Friday, and 11ish Saturday morning.
Our latest, new, surprise gig, will be Sunday, 12:30-2ish, in Mount Morris, Il, at the Straw Sculpting Festival. Amazing sculptures, made from straw. Yes, that is why the name….
Pizza on the Farm
Hey kids… Last night- Saturday- was a fun evening. We were invited to play at the ‘Pizza on the Farm’ event, at Inn Serendipity, for the Wisconsin Soil Sisters… Fun time. The Inn is an off grid, B&B/farm, and Soil Sisters are a group of women farmers, that work together to help each other. Both are way cool… A good crowd, and amazing food. The pizza was killer, and, other tasty foods- salads, cheeses, finger food… All soooo good… Thank you again, for asking us to be a part of this fun, worthy event!
