Welcome me back to blogging!
I took a few days off between Christmas and New Years, and flew down to Florida with She-Who-Knits, staying with her sister and brother-in-law and visiting her Mom in the nursing home. A bit late, we could have used the time off during the big snow a week ago, but the change of scenery, and of temperature, is welcome.

Monday evening, after a good home-cooked lasagna, we drove up to Dunnellon for an open mic at The Levee, hosted by Michelle Dalziel. I met Michelle at Marci Geller’s house, when Lucky 13 inaugurated their Sonic Underground house concert series, and invited Michelle to play. Cathy Kreger of Lucky 13 met Michelle online, where they both gave concerts in “Second Life.” It’s all about the networking! Anyway, after a featured set by Seth Parker, Michelle gave me the stage for a good half hour or so, and I was well-received. Despite a lingering cold, and a few Killian’s Reds, I gave it my best. Pictures to follow.

Today, after a late breakfast and a lazy morning, I was dropped off in downtown Inverness and hiked a few miles on the Withlacoochee State Trail, then into Fort Cooper State Park, for a dose of history and nature.

Tonight, a movie, book, and bed.
