Cheese curds

Cheese curds are a delicacy in Wisconsin and this is the first I've heard of them. I haven't tried one yet, but I think today is the day. For the past couple of days we've been staying with a friend of mine in Waterford, WI. We each have our own bedroom and bath and let me tell you, this is the life.

It's been an interesting (in a good way) week - a public radio broadcast, a gig in a funky basement wine bar, and one in a lovely cafe overlooking a lazy river. We narrowly avoided spending the night in a flophouse and managed to get 2 flat tires (one on Tuesday and one on Wednesday). With the exception of one rainy day in Cedar Falls, IA the weather has been warm and blissful. Tonight we play a sold out house concert and some friendly faces will be there, including one "mystery guest" who travelled a distance to get here. Hm ...
