Winter is a comin'

Oh yes it certainly is! Last weekend the wood burner was overworked, as we started to feel the bite of a cold northwesterly, accompanied by driving rain. Sounds like a Neil Young song, or something from Dylan's back catalogue!

Talking of NY, heard any of Chrome Dreams II? The old boy is still taking me farther out then most of the rest, still able to suprise and challenge. Same as good ole Steve Earle, no longer a country boy, he's upped and shifted to New York, name checking Joseph Mitchell in songs and turning into a good ole urban cowboy. Still means it, still cares, still rages though.

Short visit this time, I'm in the middle of teaching a class so better get down to it.
