Here I am, finally, in the arms of my beloved Vancouver Island. The drive across the mountains was snowwwy and mildly scary at times, but alas, all went well! It feels good to know I won't be going too far for at least a little while. Time to settle in for some winter months and work hard on the business of the new album. All very exciting. (If only I could find a place to live!) But I trust in the Universe to deliver me wherever I am meant to go. And it might indeed be Northwards, up into the Wilderness. We'll see. I'll keep you all updated. Till then I'm planning on seriously celebrating the advent of my favourite holiday: Oooky Spooky Eve. Got a killer costume planned this year, so look out1 (I'll post pictures for sure...)

Adieu for now,

Your Faithful Me

 
Jenny & I Halloween Eve in Victoria... spooky, no? She's got the magic Witchblade gauntlet on that gives her superpowers. I've got the sacred heart glowing on my chest and some serious white robes that hopefully might help me levitate... what do you think?

Finally it's Spring! weeeeeee! Ohhh how Victoria always feels like coming home. I've been a bit delinquent at updating my adventures of late for a couple reasons. Firstly, California was such a blast.... On my. And I was very distracted by inordinate amounts of Fun. Folk Alliance was truly unbelievable this year and the Little Red Hen room rocked the house!! Thanks so much to everyone who participated. After the conference I headed up to LA with pals Po' Girl and Chris Brown & Kate Fenner for yet another adventure in the City of Angels. Apparently I had more fun that my wee body could handle as I ended up coming down with a super nasty case of strep throat and had to find myself an emergency clinic fast.... Ended up passed out in a Motel 6 in Santa Barbara county for five days on heavy doses of antibiotics for my throat and an ear infection watching nothin' but X Files reruns. La Pauvre K.

But all is oh-so well now and I'm so glad to be back on my beloved Vancouver Island. Time for resting and recuperating and frolicking about the beautiful forests... 

There's no place like home.

Hey y'all.

Like the new website??

It's been quite the summer so far! I have moved away from my home on Vancouver Island and I am heading for the oceans of the east… Me and Esmeralda the van drove across Canada and next we are heading south to the Shenandoah Valley. I am taking some time out to write and rehearse in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. I am SO looking forward to finally having time to practice my banjo in the holler with the copperheads and the Virginia creeper (so long as the snakes are nice…). After that it's Nashville for guitar shaped nail clippers and sleaze ball motels. Hooray! I am also so excited for the Newport Folk Festival 'cause lots of my heroes are gonna be there (Emmylou Harris, Patty Larkin and the Indigos to name a few…)
I will be back in Ontario in August for a couple festivals and then off to the east coast in search of a new home…(Halifax?… Atlantis?… Amsterdam?…) Who knows. We'll just have to see.

Hope to see you somewhere out there.

All hail Queen Xena
