I’m heading to the airport soon, flying back home after this Alberta tour. The last time I was in the province, I was riding trains and Greyhound buses. This time, I rented a car and saw more of Alberta than I ever had before. From the badlands to the canyons in dinosaur country, to prairie fields, to downtown Calgary, to the mountains in Banff and Lake Louise. I met some wonderful people along the way, all working to bring art and music and food and a social conscience to their communities.
Next up is the Folk Music Ontario conference in Toronto in October. Four days packed with workshops, showcases, panels, and jams – the annual Folk Family Reunion.
