Dang...more waiting. It'll be worth it fo' sho'.

We're outta here in ten days. Still not sure what we'll be doing - but I'm not too concerned. Plenty of time to work on fiddling so I'll be a happy man no matter what. I'll be in touch.

Peace.

Jackass. But seriously, I'm glad that you had a good time!!! I really wish I could have been there too, but I'm taking a ton of time off to go to SDW and Hiawatha, AND MBOTMA! You gotta pick and choose ya know?
And anyway, I bet there'll be enough jamming and amazing concerts with Mike Seeger and Dirk Powell and Sammy and Caleb, among others... not to, ya know, rub it in or anything.

Agreed. It was a ton of fun though. I hope I didn't make too much of a fool out of myself, but on second thought, I really don't care! We should hang before I go back to MN in May.
