Gigging and yard work. What else is summer for? We've basically lived like we're renting the house since we've been married. So, we've decided to be grown-ups and take some interest in making the place look nice. It really does have a positive impact on your psyche to look around and see beautiful trees, flowers, plants that you have either planted or maintained - you've invested yourself in nature and in your surroundings.
I've been through some rough months with the death of my brother and my mom's illness. I'm trying to change my life, change my mindset. I'm seeking inspiration and restoration. Nothing - except love, I suppose - has restorative powers like nature.
I wrote a spiritual song, a first for me. I'm pretty happy with it! But I wish the songs were coming easier. The gigs are going GREAT, tho. Wish I could play full band all the time and help more fully realize the vision I have for the songs. But duo and trio gigs are each their own thing and you make new discoveries with those too. Looking forward to rendering more Appalachian Therapy!
