Olivet frogs

I think I’m supposed to be blogging about more Midwest Banjo Camp related things - but J.R. Jenks is doing this fine. Here’s a recording of some of the tree frogs in Olivet: olivet_mi-frogs-20080606.

We went to Elderly Instruments in Lansing, MI yesterday on the way home. It was about lunchtime, so we asked the staff for recommendations. The nearby Mama Bear’s Café was closed, so we took up another recommendation: the Golden Harvest.

Oo-aw, it was good. Where else can you munch on a perfect smoked turkey reuben while there’s Olivia Tremor Control cranked on the stereo? The Golden Harvest even has a MySpace page.

Fully installed at Midwest Banjo Camp at East Lansing. It’s green, there are chipmunks, and many, many banjo players - oh, and Clif Ervin, bones player extraordinaire.

I’m going to the Midwest Banjo Camp this summer! W00t!

(and yes, I’ve set up a Banjo Hangout account. It’s like myspace for banjo nerds.)
