Larry Keel is a skilled and versatile acoustic musician. I appreciate how he reveres the roots music he grew up with in the Blue Ridge Mountains, tweaks it with his own original style, and brings it to us here in the Rocky Mountains. It was great to open for them at the Stage Stop on Friday.

There is a fifth season up here at 7,510ft in elevaton on Lickskillet Road. Mud Season. It goes Summer, Fall, Winter, Mud, and Spring. And I think it’s safe to say that it is officially Mud Season. After going for an early hike with the dogs today, most of the mud is on our husky right now! Still, today is one of my favorite days of the year because of daylight savings. From here on out, the days get lighter and lighter for longer and longer. After a long, snowy, cold, and particularly windy winter, this is very good news.
