Marion Winik described our friends, Pete and Shelley, as the perfect house guests. Amazing company and an exceptionally light footprint. Over coffee this morning Steve Black outdid Pete and Shelley by suggesting that we do a project. We picked one from our ever shrinking summer job list and spent the afternoon between showers setting patio stones in concrete. Our favorite First Friday stop was Axom Gallery’s show of Gareth Fitzgerald Barry’s sculpture. We finished the night with a small screen showing of “The Source Family.” Everything you imagined a commune to be, sort of interesting but not worth linking to.
I’ve got to thank Rick Simpson for dislodging you know what from my brain ears when he played Lee Michaels’ “You Know What I Mean” on his Gumbo Variations radio show.

A cuppla weeks ago, Jason Brown was commenting about “Do you know what I mean” and it reminded me of how big a song that was in the summer of 71. I dug it out and have been playing it ever since.
