We had lots of adventures together Alana was an adventurous woman. We fell in love and drove across the country together. I was travelling in the summer of 2006 with a lady I met in Ithaca, New York. There was one time I was busking in Santa Fe, on Labor Day. They are all true, though some of names of folks have been changed for their privacy. I've decided to write them as little vignettes, not necessarily in a linear timeline. These stories are some little fables of my modern-day musical exploits. I've been several places in Canada, USA, and Europe, and have criss-crossed America several times. Here are a few on them, mostly from the last year when I decided to fulfill my childhood aspiration to live the life of a gypsy. As a piper, busker, vagabond, troubadour, bard, and wandering poet, I have had many adventures.
