Rafi, Cecilia and I have all been having a real treat these last few weeks, because some of my closest friends have been coming to visit from Brooklyn and PhilaBaltimore. First Adam had the notion of working on his next album for some of January and he arrived 2 weeks ago with friend Sam in tow! They have been staying up in Dennysville, a short 25 minute drive. Our evenings were speckled with special dinners and afternoon roundezvous. Adam took Sam to the bus station 1 week ago, and we've enjoyed lots of Hang Time. I haven't been able to spend this kindof day to day activity with Adam for a long time, perhaps since we met and lived together when we were providing disaster relief in Buras, Louisiana. The joy of spending daily interaction with a such a lovely friend is a gift beyond compare. I feel like we've completely "caught up" and are now able to process the PRESENT MOMENT together!
This past Friday Joan Puchalski arrived on an evening flight from LaGuardia. Cecilia and I made the dutiful trip to Bangor, and constant fun time has been happening since. Joan's one of those people that just clicks right in with our family and she feels like part of the tribe, plus she's so upbeat and positive that it's a real joy to be around her. She's also excellent with Cecilia, and we love that. She has a real commitment to Washington County, as she's made a promise that as time progresses she wants to see Eastport in every month of the year! So far she's come in January, February, August and October. Joan was only up here for 3 n ights this time, but she promises to come for 5 nights next time so that we can have a longer visit, and get into the swing of things.
