There Is No Lodging At The Gardenville Hotel

I wanted to say hello to the future. I hope that you are doing OK there. I don’t know where my belt is. I didn’t floss or shave. And I did not sleep. But after a nice morning of music and lunch with JB Kline and Luanne, I feel much more human.  Mr. Kline has …

Waffles, Boyfriends

June 8. Wedding in ten days. Walked five miles up the canal to my [current] favorite café. Feet hurting, so I’m taking an extended break. Catching up with Laura in Carrboro and Nick in Newtown. Asking Andy Keenan if he wants to record sad songs in my studio. I probably already asked him that. If …

We Like The Way You Make Us Dream

“Excuse me, sir. Do you know anything about where you are?” I collide with some stumbly, spirited women on the towpath. I point them toward downtown. These hills get spooky. The mansion on the hill’s not the one that I remember from before. It’s the only thing I can see other than the waves illuminated …

New Hope/The Old Magic

June 7. Wedding in eleven days. Walked two miles down the canal. Moseyed down the hill into New Hope and got a mysterious blue drink from a handsome young man who was playing Kurt Vile on his sound system. Two different bars are directly in front of me. To the right is the bar where …

I’ve got to take a chance

June 6. Wedding in twelve days. Out back eating buttered bread, drinking seltzer, killing nymph spotted lanternflies with a wooden coaster which depicts sassy frogs getting ready for a night out on the town. Guy walking by playing harmonica slowly and sweetly. Got dress shoes and a wedding ring in the mail yesterday. Not used …
