Just drove back through pea-soup fog from a Session Americana concert at ArtsRiot in Burlington. The food at Arts Riot was terrible, the band took a long break.. and there wern’t any chairs, but I still love listening to these guys. Its a 6 person pick up group out of Boston.. they always play the same songs.. swapping instruments, mic’s etc.. They really seem to love playing together. The one song they didn’t play tonight.. at least until we leaft at 11:30.. was my favorite.. It’s by Jefferson Hammer.. and it’s called ‘This Ragged World WE Spanned”.. I don’t know why .. but its one of my favorite songs ever… I was determined to hear it so I foudn this version on Youtube. Hope you like it !
Quiet day working at home. Managed to get outside for an hour with the dogs while I took calls. Crazy weather. 65°F. Walking through 6 inches of snow in shorts and sneakers.
Crazy weather today… It was supposed to be rainy but instead bright sunshine and almost 60°F. That’s a good 40° warmer than it normally is this time of year.
I managed to get some time outside with the dogs while I was on phone calls and it was incredible. I should’ve been out there and shorts except for all of the snow we still have.
The sun was so bright and the roads were so muddy that it really does feel like spring just six weeks too early.
I’m not complaining :-)… But maybe I am. I do miss the cold
i’ve been wearing sunglasses for the last couple of days because right leg still hurting my eyes. Kind of residual from the concussion I got in Germany last week. I love seeing the world through the sun glasses
Everything looks somehow cooler.… But I don’t recommend them for using a computer at 7 PM. I couldn’t figure out why it was so dark LOL
When we got home on Saturday there was a package waiting for me from my oldest son Max. Inside was a beautifully carved wooden sign that he had made with the word “ganbatte” engraved on it. It’s the same word that Max carved into the back of the cell phone case he made for me that I carry every day. It means “go for it” in Japanese… It’s both a word of encouragement and challenge.
I love that kid!
Today was nice… took Most of it off… Did manage to get a couple of work things done. Tomorrow back to normal.
Diane and I were able to get out in the snow with the dogs. We did Libby’s look out on snowshoes. It was about a foot of snow at the top… Kind of crusty from last nights 0° cold. But it was 47° by the time we got to the bottom. Supposedly rain coming tomorrow… Which means all the snow will go. Might mean a flood?
45 degrees warmer than last night
The roads are starting to melt… Looks almost like March
OK… Time for sleep. More tomorrow
Night all, night Sam
