Steve & Kristi took us over to Gig Harbor, stopping off briefly in a National Park and spending some time on the shore before heading off for a gig... it was great to watch them perform a full set as the duo whose music we immediately took a liking to back in 2004 when we first saw them at the Bluestone Folk Club during their UK tour.
On the way back we stopped off to do a little bit of shopping and - would you believe it - at the first place we actually found two purple gilets! Amazing! We have searched in the UK for years without success, and here in Tacoma we found them at last. What amazing serendipity or happenstance.
Denny, a friend of Steve & Kristi, came over in the evening to record in Steve's studio and we shared dinner together - while the recording was in progress Val set about packing the suitcases for our journey home the following day. We then booked our seats and boarding passes online before turning in for the night... a strange sort of evening where our minds were turning towards home as we checked and double-checked that everything was organised and in its place.

Hi who cares about what meals you have eaten. You musn t have a lot of things to do if you have time to write this sort of rubbish. P S I attended a few of your concerts a few months back and a lot of your audiences in the North East are laughing at these ridiculous blogs. Not only the NE but there are others like myself who come from other parts of the country to review performances. Room for improvement, here I am afraid. Andy
ReplyDeleteHi Andy
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up - we decided to keep a journal of this special trip, and it was easy to just add the entries to our Blog...
It's nice to be back home... we've had such a busy time and are looking forward to getting back to performing here again.
