The Art of the Day is: The art of playing together.
Last night I went to a bluegrass jam session in Waltham. It was made even more pleasant by knowing the Kaufman brothers (who were playing together for the first time in years), but what impressed me was how each individual (and at one point there were 15 players) cued off each other, listened to each other, while fingering and plucking. Hand/eye/ear coordination, impressive, yeah, sure, but becoming an entity, the sum greater than the parts, that impressed me the most! Live music, seek it out.

Some days "It takes all the running you can do to stay in the same place". This blog is to chronicle the running, and point out the interesting things, people, places, I meet on the way.
About Me
- Name: the other Joan
- Location: New Hampshire, United States
I've lived in all 4 New states, NY, NJ, NM, NH. I grew up as far away as you can from Manhattan and still take the subway.(I used to put subway tokens in my penny loafers so I could click my heels three times and go home). I've sung solo in the Parma Opera House. My brother and sister are twins. I believe that people want to be used, but they want to be used well.

Red Queen Rules:
- Keep your eyes on your
own plate - Be yourself,
it's who you do best - Every problem has
a family
Because it takes all the running you can do to keep in the same place.
