Weekly Report from Boulder
A much more mellow week for me last week. Sometimes it’s nice to not be out every night. Of course it’s also good to get the time to pick up around the house before Bert comes for a stay.

Sunday I picked him up at the airport and we went straight up to Gold Hill for the “Charles,” aka the GNU Mountain Jam. This longstanding KGNU benefit is a fun Sunday afternoon of music, barbecue, and microbrews. I help serve beer, which makes the afternoon go very quickly. First thing we did was get some beer for while we stood in line for the barbecue. Since Bert has been in California touring to support his solo Bach repertoire, it went straight to his head. But a little of Billy Bob’s brisket (for him) and tofu (for me) helped give us the energy for the rest of the afternoon. He was a big fan of Richard Greene and enjoyed hearing Joan Leonard Wernick’s distinctive vocals. I enjoyed the swing of Amazing Acres.

Next week it’s my summer mountain getaway time with my sister.
