Welcome

Well, another phase of the adventure of living with a musician is about to begin.
I will soon be leaving on a month-long road trip with Ginger, filled with festivals, performances and recording---and hopefully some family visit side trips.
Rather than posting all this on Facebook, I thought I'd try writing a blog that individuals could choose to follow at their own pace.
Over the last years I've certainly spent many hours as Ginger's roadie and proud audience member, and we've even been to a few festivals briefly. But this will be a completely new level of immersion in her musical life.
While I certainly will be talking about her performances (I'm very proud of her) the focus of this blog will be on my experiences, insights and adventures as a relative newcomer to this scene.
Friday afternoon (April 29) we will be leaving for a 3-day Beltane Festival in French Lick, Indiana---riding with renowned guitarist Brian Henke. We will be back for a few (3) days to re-pack, then we will begin driving for a 28 day tour.
Right now I'm typing this (in my usual one-finger style) on a word processor. Once I work out the mechanics of how to post this to a blog site, I'll finish this post.
Okay... here we go on Blogger.
The house is organized chaos...Ginger has many lists...my mind is a-whirl with less-structured lists and what-if concerns. Ginger assures me that we will be ready. We actually have already obtained or arranged for many missing puzzle pieces, but this is new enough to me that I wake up early fretting. If I don't drive her crazy before we go, I'm sure all will be well.
Please, family and friends, wish us well---and me sanity.
More soon.
