House Call
December 31, 2008
Doctor Danny, who some of you know as the veterinarian who “always wanted to play the banjo” in The How and the Tao of Old Time Banjo, stopped by for a visit this afternoon. We haven’t had the chance to pick tunes or shoot the breeze together for a while so this was a real treat.
In other news, I also managed to see the doctor about my ears (the trip to Salisbury yesterday was a disaster) and it looks like things could start to improve over the next few weeks. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens next.

Patrick and Dear Old Dad,
I’m sure you guys will be flooded with New Years blessings, so I thought I would get mine in a day early. Your year end reflections caused me to look back on my year, and it’s amazing that when you count your blessings, the bad times don’t seem to bad. May you continue to have success with your banjo business and pikware, and please come back to the Daily Frail as soon as you can. Here is my version of your 6/19/07 early morning session you gave. Hope you enjoy.
