I'm leaving tomorrow to start my trek down to Memphis for the International Folk Alliance Conference. I have been very excited to make this trip. It will be four days of wonderul music, songwriters, music industry folks, and simply warmer weather!
I have had quite the week. My vehicle has seen better days. I named my 87 Toyota Corolla "Fermina" after a female character in the beautiful novel, Love in the Time of Cholera....because she was a symbol of everlasting love. Everlasting being the key word there. However, she will not be bringing me on this journey. She will rest up for any Spring excursions I might be planning. I am renting a car this time.
I look forward to music most. There is such an extensive list of performers attending that I admire that I can't even begin to list them. If you are interested...check out the site yourself. www.folkalliance.org
If my rental fails me...I will make it on foot. I'm determined...
