Thanks for the kind words, Susan. You too, Rap.

I have plenty to be excited about. NOMAD is right around the corner, and I'm especially looking forward to the Church And Street Corner Harmony workshop. Back in the days when I ran a concert series, at one time there were four other series going on within easy driving distance. Now, four of them are gone, and one has cut way back. And funny thing is, as you get older, distances get farther. Same thing happens with hearing: Have you noticed that people don't talk as loud as they used to?

Next year, we're really hoping to make the Getaway. We could do both, as NOMAD is almost withing walking distance of where I live... about ten miles away. If they're on different weekends, we may just do both. What a kick that would be?

Any festivals in Idaho?
