Today was a day for resting, re-charging our physical and emotional batteries, and returning to some semblance of normal routine for Steve & Kristi - shopping, going to the bank, collecting and sending mail, catching up on meetings and visiting the hospital again. We swapped some videos and photos, generally just hung out together and relaxed with no pressure on entertaining or being anywhere specific at any particular time.
It also gave us time to catch up on blogs and emails and MySpace and the Folk Show ning community and Facebook and do some guitar playing in preparation for appearing at the local open mic the following night. It's really kind of Marc (a friend of Steve & Kristi) to let us borrow his Martin D18, and also Steve kindly lets us play his Garrison and/or Washburn - but we're missing our Taylors tremendously... and to get the absolute signature sound of jiva we need Val playing 12-string and all the guitars we've played (apart from a couple of super guitars in the Taylor factory) have been 6-strings... so it is certainly an interesting challenge for us.
In the evening we rented a DVD, popped some popcorn and drank a few beers while watching 'Frost & Nixon' - an appropriate way to wind down a chill-out day.
