Kerrville Folk Festival 2007

I just got back from the Kerrville Folk Festival. I had a great time. I saw many friends I usually see at Thanksgiving, but missed since I didn't go last year. I caught up with Chris Chandler who I went to college with, who was performing at the festival. Other highlights included: hanging out with Keith Grimwood for more than a few minutes after a Trout show; starting to learn how to spin Poi; hearing for the first time Kenny White and Jonathan Byrd; hearing Terri Hendrix again; drinking Fat Tire ale and getting some free swag from the New Belgium Brewing Company including a cool tire patch kit for my bike; watching Jenna play music with Ezra Idlet and Keith Grimwood.
Only one negative aspect this year: a bad rash that itched like mother f*cker.

P.S. I forgot one of my biggest highlights of Kerrville!!!! (How could I?) My good friend from college, ND Ton-o-thorns, came to see Trout on Sunday, but the storm blew away the show. We met in SA and had dinner. Then ND gave up his bed to two Kerr-fried campers (Jenna and me) What would I have done without him?

Fantastic pictures!

Looking them over, I realize I missed so many of your fantastic adventures. I guess I'm grateful I was there for the scorpion!
