I came down with a cold. This is the second time I&#8217;ve left the maritimes since I moved back home last December, and the second time I&#8217;ve gotten ill. It&#8217;s starting to feel like it&#8217;s not a coincidence.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>So, anyway, I dosed myself up with Oil of Oregano, Cold F\/X, Vitamin D and Advil Cold and Sinus and went and played at Grumpy&#8217;s on Day 5. Despite my cold, it was a really fun show! With the delightful <a href=\"http:\/\/brieneilson.com\/\">Brie Neilson<\/a> hosting the evening, Gern F of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.uswm.ca\/\">United Steel Workers of Montreal<\/a> behind the bar, and a full room of enthusiastic revellers, we made a great night of it.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>On Day 6 I drove to Ottawa and I spent that evening and most of Day 7 recuperating at the home of some dear friends. The house concert on Day 7 went amazingly well, given my state of health. I was so full of Advil Cold and Sinus, I&#8217;m amazed my eyes didn&#8217;t glow like yellow gel-caps. But, my voice held out for me to serenade a room full of lovely, attentive and generous-hearted folks. Also, generous-walleted &#8211; thanks, folks! <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Now, it&#8217;s Day 8, I&#8217;ve driven to Peterborough and am at a laundromat here. A <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theecolaundryroom.com\">solar-powered laundromat<\/a>, in case you&#8217;re interested.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Here&#8217;s the mandatory picture of my car. Note the kleenex on the passenger seat. And my bathing suit still draped over the driver&#8217;s seat from the pool in Edmundston.
