Ahhhh, yes, I'd love to. However, this year i think we're going to be staying home :( This is too bad as we had such an amazing time there last summer. You never know, we might just be able to pull it off at the last minute (but without the big kickass RV ).

I should call that gang from Chicago who made those tasty treats (remember the batch of cookies, crispy squares, banana loaf?) Y U M M Y :)

Is anyone thinking about going to this Rhythmfest? Kanada Kev? Mark Tonin?

Baj and I will be trying to get to this.. Rich too I think!

Labour Day weekend for Gratefulfest is not realistic for me, so at one point I was seriously considering Rhythmfest, but for a variety of reasons I've opted not to go. I'll be hitting up some local stuff instead (e.g. Widespread in Toronto) and then the following weekend Phil/Levon in Rochester. I'm still trying to figure out how to swing Gratefulfest, but it's wishful thinking at this point ...

Peace, Mark
