Weekly Report from Boulder
I played hooky a few days last week as my friend Bert is in town. He’d never been skiing before so I took him out to the local area, Eldora where we rented him skis and headed out on the cross country trails. It’s so nice to do that early in the year and in the middle of the week when the crowds are thin. Lots of running around this time – Friday we spent the day in Denver, Saturday having friends over, and Sunday off to see Ratcracker! This is a twisted take on the Nutcracker by the local aerial dance troupe, Frequent Flyers.

Oddly enough, he got here in time on Tuesday to see the Blind Boys of Alabama. I say oddly as we also saw them at Red Rocks this summer and he saw them too in LA and opening for Peter Gabriel. This was the second best time I’ve seen them, nothing seems to beat that awesome show at the Fox during the Boulder AAA summit. We’d gotten the message that Clarence couldn’t make it over in the morning for an interview, but what a treat to have George come by. I mentioned missing him the last trip through town and he said matter of factly, "Oh yeah, I had a heart attack." All the better then to see him up and about and singing with his beautiful voice. Mavis Staples also stopped by and as so many of us are originally from Chicago and Detroit here we were honored to meet her.
