Going to see one of my fave progressive Bluegrass bands tonight: Steep Canyon Rangers. I still can't believe they came to little 'ole Sitka.

Although we've had rain all day, the sun does come out once in a while in Sitka. This was 2 years ago, on January 9th, looking east from atop Castle Hill.

Listening to "American Pie" this morning brought a memory into sharp focus:

Me, laying on my stomach on the mottled bright green to army green shag carpeting of our living room, sun beaming through our open front door, with a tape player I'd used to record "American Pie" from the radio.

Notebook and pencil in hand, I start/stopped through the entire song, transcribing the lyrics.

The youth of today have no clue.

I haven't been out in the afternoons to catch a recent sunset so I thought I'd share this one from two years ago in Feb.

I was driving home and had to pull over. The colors in the pic are true to what I saw. Absolutely amazing.

I want yarn dyed in these colors!
