Well been a while i guess since my last entry. I worked at Paws Up Resort for the last three years, seven days a week in season. I had great fun playin' my banjo at the chuck wagon and reciting cowboy poetry. This year i opted just to do special events so i can enjoy my summer.
I also drove the team and carried the folks to the chuck wagon via a team of Percheron/Fiord horses.
Banjo playin' dominated my last three summers and really not sure much improvement has taken place. Still struggle goin' up the neck cuz i think I'm to lazy to understand how that whole thing works. Still play every day and am messin' with two finger style along with claw and sometimes i catch myself doin' both in the same song. I took some great lessons in Missoula a yr and a half ago but since it's over an hour and twenty minutes...i only lasted three months or so. Mike was however a great help and took my autographed head (ramblin' Jack Elliott) off my Deering and installed a fibreskin head and enclosed tuners. Now it's really sweet and the old head is framed and hanging up.
Hope all is well to all my banjo friends out there...Happy Trails
Angelo
