Home I Go

Sitting in my hotel room in Detroit. Flight leaves in a few hours for home. This has been a good time and will hopefully be a place to build from in the future here. Nice shows in Madison, Chicago and Ann Arbour last night. Last two gigs were opening for Lucy Kaplansky who is a sweet lady. Some folks travelled a very long way to here me play (two groups from the UK) and its very kind of them.Scott, who did monitors on the Art Garfunkel tour I was on showed up last night and he had driven three hours..so kind. The response has been great and last night I played in the hometown of the Fleming Agency that is booking me here and that was important. They have big plans and over breakfast this morning we discussed a lot of stuff. It’s a big commitment but I will see what we can do. JJ flew into Chicago as a surprise, which was nice of him. He was supposed to fly home with me this evening but has left his passport in Chicago so that wont happen. I thought it was only me who did things like that. Chris has been amazing and I’m very in debted to him. We paused the game with me 50 points up. I look forward to resuming the battle and, indeed, the next time we hit the road. Looks like I will be back here in Sept, just before the election. I only hope this great country does the right thing. My friend who sent me the rather nasty emails has calmed somewhat. I sent him a response a week later, which was considerate and polite. We have since exchanged a few messages and in the last he wished me all the best and thanked me for what I was doing. There is common ground out there for those who seek something of the truth. Please excuse any spelling (as always), typing this in a hurry..now, where is my passport?
