Edmonton, AB

Heyyyy y'all. I've been in Edmonton for the weekend visiting with my friend Kara in her lovely new home near Mill Creek Park. I've been have a great Edmonton time and am so glad to have a few days just to hang out here. I cruised into town on Friday and found out that my hero Patty Griffin was playing at the folk fest that night. Yipppeeeeee!!! Great timing. She was so incredibly cool. She was all decked out in pink (a woman after my true heart...) With big platform shoes and her bright red hair. I just stared up at the stage with loving awe as buckets of rain poured on my head. It was so worth it. I spent Saturday not festivalling as I have been feeling a little folk fested out... did some excellent shopping (I am now the proud owner of my new gold leafed Xena warrior princess mug) and went to see Psychic Eva for a rune reading. It was all very strangely enlightening and I can apparently look forward to richness and fame ( we'll seeee......) marriage and babies (not yet please...) and excellent musical career prospects over the next year. Hot Damn! that's good news. Psychic Eva also sees me heading south of the border and relocating to yonder America in the not too distant future.. Hmmmmnnnn. Well I guess you never know. As for now I am planning on relocating to ye olde coffee shop for some caffeination and then power van cleanage. Next stop Saskatchewan.
