		<title>new music work, not released in time for xmas&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Rumblestrip is recording a new album, and I can&#8217;t help but notice that the really smart musicians are releasing their new albums in time for the holiday season. How do they do that? Do they record all summer when it&#8217;s glorious outside, stuck inside a studio, out of the sounds of a summer day&#8230;? They [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bob&#8217;s Java Jive</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s a bar and music spot we should get Swing a Cat a gig at sometime&#8230; maybe. I still want to go there, though. Even after finding some online reviews:
&#8220;Manages to be divey without being skanky. The phrase &#8220;ragged glory&#8221; comes to mind.&#8221;
&#8220;Classic Tacoma. Small, cramped and smells horrible. Locals love it. Yes, it&#8217;s a [...]]]></description>

		<title>In search of Becher</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Zoe and I visited the Chabott Coal towers after school today. They&#8217;re wooden, circa 1900 is my guess. Part of the industry in Keene that lined up for the railroad, until the 70s when they had their final bankruptcy. Chabott is still in business. I couldn&#8217;t get the Becher inspired shot that I was after. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Bernd and Hilla (Wobeser) Becher: barns, water towers, storage silos, and warehouses</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Wouldn&#8217;t life be simple if I were only interested in music. Then I could present a unified front, and never doubt what and where I am. Like all those folks in the music business. They all seem so&#8230; focussed. I have been in love with photography ever since I bought a camera from a friend [...]]]></description>

		<title>Swing A Cat!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The hottest week of a cool New England summer. I&#8217;m savoring the gulf stream mix, keeping my feet in the water, on an island for a few days.
Swing a Cat! has been doing a lot of evening town concerts this summer, all over NH and some in Maine. What a blast it&#8217;s been, and we&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<title>Listening to Jon Kabat-Zinn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I&#8217;ve been listening to alot of podcasts lately, since I&#8217;ve been doing a lot of driving this summer. I always seem to enjoy the program &#8220;Speaking of Faith&#8221;. I am tired of Christianity and far more interested in Buddhism. Being raised a lax Unitarian, it&#8217;s not a far leap. Krista Tippett takes speaking of faith [...]]]></description>

		<title>April news</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Schedule page finally updated! Something about spring, lots of energy to get though those lists&#8230;
Had a great gig with Blue Ox, what fun playing those fierce swing grooves, and playing with old friends. I did my best to hire everyone that worked with me on the &#8220;in my girlish days&#8221; album. It was such fun, [...]]]></description>

		<title>spring is taking the stage</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Life: Really, NH weather is so behind. There&#8217;s been the tease that spring is here, but there&#8217;s not a bud poking out from the garden, from under the few inches of snow left. I made some maple syrup for the first time in years, my neighbor had more sap than she could boil. Keeping the [...]]]></description>

		<title>say no to new: a month without any new plastic?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about trash. Two weeks ago, on the BBC I heard a story about a woman in England who spent a month without plastic. That idea rattling around my brain. My mother-in-law, who already uses next to no plastic and creates hardly any garbage &#8212; would be hardly impressed. But [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Things have been crazy around here, and here&#8217;s the reason why. I have been doing my regular stuff: music, raising kids as well as I can, being a good partner to Nat. And preparing for my mother&#8217;s memorial service. My brother&#8217;s service was last month, on a lovely dusky evening, on his beloved island.  [...]]]></description>
