Time for The New Bedford Folk Festival Part II. I left you with a cliffhanger yesterday, I told of linner with Emily, Sarah, and their kids but didn’t tell you what music I was heading for. I can see you just shiver with antici…………….(Say It!)………pation. Me too. Let me look at my schedule and find […]

Dateline Assonet MA: Welcome to the New Bedford Folk Festival edition of Wise Madness; perhaps just part one. We’ll see how this goes. Every year I drive up with Mike. The festival starts Saturday morning so instead of leaving New York very early Saturday we left in mid-afternoon Friday. I do the same thing at […]
I’m off to the New Bedford Folk Festival today. Too bad my digestive system is unhappy. It’s an obstruction from the scar tissue in my small intestine. This time I didn’t eat anything stupid. I’m just paying for a lifetime of Crohn’s disease. All the years I had no insurance and as off meds did […]

Caramoor or Less

Dateline Van Merc Hill: Thanksgiving with Emily and Joe’s family is a lot like NERFA; I spend the day in my jammies, I don’t go outside, there’s lots of music, and I stay up late with other people. Friday is the day of rest between first and second Thanksgiving. I attempted to edit photos starting […]
I spent another day at home. The worst part is that I didn’t get my phone fixed. I’ve been editing and posting pictures fromNERFA and impressed at how well the pictures came out before I damaged the camera lens. My phone camera does something my real camera doesn’t do, give me continuous control of white […]
I was a dirty-stay-out-late, as my parents would say, partying to all hours of the night. I was at the Hudson West Folk Festival volunteer party.
My therapist has me make a list of my achievements; today’s is registering for NERFA. Now I have to find a roommate. Registering is difficult for me, it’s an anxiety trigger; most monetary transactions are. I rarely get a roommate and registered with much time to spare. Fortunately, NERFA is understanding of my problems and […]
