I was just looking at my last blog entry and I see I haven't written anything since about Christmas time and here it is six months later already. My faithful readers (all two of them) probably think I have fallen off the face of the earth. I'll quickly update you on what I've been up to lately and then let you get back to your regularly scheduled lives. Since March I've been working at a place in Menasha called SCA tissue as a staff accountant. It's a pretty nice job where I get to do a lot of cool stuff with Excel. Probably something only an accountant would find exciting but fun none the less.

When I'm not working I play music every chance I get in between the household chores and yardwork which always seem to get in the way. During the winter I went to a festival called Swamp N Grass in Elkhart Lake, WI. I played at Memorial Gardens in Appleton for a spring festival in May with my friends Hugo, Julie and Dick. Once a week we jam at Liz's or Tom's and just recently we've started a bi-monthly Green Apple jam at Generation's coffeehouse in Neenah. I went to the Bill Jorgenson Memorial festival in June and did some late night jamming until five in the morning. I hope to make it to a couple of more festivals this summer. I probably won't make it to Evart again this year as work will probably get in the way. But I look forward to seeing my Michigan friends at Al & Millie's Labor Day weekend jam. I've also made it to a couple of the Fondy Acoustic Music Association jams this year in Fond Du Lac. The picture above is from the Green Apple pick-nic we recently had at Peabody park in Appleton.

In other news I have a friend who is trying to convince me I need a woman in my life. She's tried to get me to use the online dating sites etc but I've only tentatively tried them. At this point in my life I've kind of decided that maybe I'll be perpetually single but I guess you never know.

Anyway, I hope your summer is off to a good start and I'll try to write again before another six months go by.
