"Goodness Godness Agnes," as Gramps sometimes says. It's been quite a couple of days.

Nima and I more or less hitchhiked 700 miles in the last two days. Yesterday our friend Elsa drove us from Boston to Falmouth, where we caught the ferry to Martha's Vineyard for a show. This morning a gal named Treather drove us from Vineyard Haven to Boston, where we restocked our merchandise. And tonight Jeff and Senayit drove us from Boston to Washington, DC, for tomorrow's show at the Velvet Lounge.

Now we need rides to Richmond on Thursday, Philadelphia on Friday, Brooklyn on Saturday, and then back to Boston, where we'll attempt to purchase a new tour vehicle and head to Florida!

The Che's Lounge show on the island of Martha's Vineyard was pleasant. Afterwards, Nima and I stayed at my friend Gretchen Baer's parents' place. Gene and Jackie Baer are both artists. Gene, who is also a terrific writer and piano man, gave us an epic tour of their house and its wonders. Someone, someday, ought to make a Baer family documentary.

I've always wanted to meet G's parents, Jackie and Gene. Jackie's been to my house, but it was during my gone years, so I missed her....
