I'm writing to you from Lexington, Kentucky, where we are camped for the night (no, Diana, not in a truck stop...I promise we are in a hotel) following the close of the Central Ohio Folk Festival, and what a festival it was! The best one ever for me! Our vendor table was moderately successful, with art and music books as well as a slew of cards being sold. It paid for our festival costs and then some. But the best part was all the great people! I had such fun hanging out with Joni Sines of the group abNormal Sines--great lady and she teaches a great fingerpicking workshop. Of course seeing our buddy Sandi Vitek is always a treat. And what a great time with the Breakneck Allstars--Ed and Elaine Bray and Barb Withee. (They're from up our way.) They put on a great program. I love to listen to Ed's songs, stories, and poems about the hobo life. Fact: Ed and Elaine got married at a hobo convention in Britt Iowa! Here's Khrysso with the group...
So many great people...Mountain Marge Diamond from Elyria, did a great workshop on jamming. Scott Alarick, from Cambridge, Mass with his great book, Revival--I'm already loving it. This festival draws talent
from all over, and chairs Art and Sharon Mittenbergs made sure everything ran like clockwork, and did it with a smile.
Can you tell I had a great time?
Tennessee tomorrow...'night friends.
