Denver, CO
Angie and Missy (my wife and daughter) joined me in Denver where we rented a car and headed for the mountains on our day off Tuesday. We took 70 west out of Denver and followed directions given to us by one of the video crew guys to a remote area at about 10 thousand feet elevation. Missy and I hiked up a snow covered trail until we were exhausted and took some beautiful pictures that you can see by using the link at the end of this post.David, Pedro and I visited a great music store called the Denver Folklore Center at 17th and Pearl. Harry, the store's owner, has been in business since 1962. He's a great guy who made Pedro a deal he couldn't refuse on three flutes. I've included some pictures from our store visit.
I had two guests in the audience for last night's show, Missy and Jamie Janover. Jamie Janover is one of the best and most interesting hammer dulcimer players I've ever met. He enjoyed the show and afterward we went out to eat, swapped cds and stories from the road for several hours. I highly recommend his music. I feel safe saying if you like my cd Turning Point, you'll like Jamie's music too.
