We are home in Albuquerque, grateful for a great tour and pleased to be back. It’s good to tread on the strange path music demands. At the lovely Valley Stage festival in Huntington, VT, which was heartbreaking to drive away from before sunset yesterday, we saw this sign, which tickled me. It was nice to follow that path through the woods and come out in the place where people are.
You know, another great tidbit from the tour I’d be remiss not to tell you about came from Tom, the neurologist gentleman on the flight out. When we asked him for advice on maintaining a limber mind, he relayed the magic success rate for real success: 60%. If you find yourself consistently mastering a higher percentage, say 75 or 80%, you’re not trying enough new stuff or taking enough risks. Let’s just say I was happy to hear that. On now, into more risks and more growing!
