We went to see John Prine in Bakersfield

 
First, dinner at the excellent Mama Roomba's
 


 
Just one door down from the best neon anywhere

 
And the neon of the Fox Theater compliments a lovely sunset.


John Prine played for two-plus glorious hours to a wildly appreciative audience. He is a sly artist with words. His songs are like paintings.

The Holidays

For Passover, Josh led a sedar for six of our friends who had never participated in one before.

 

I set the table with Norma's linens and plates, and made the charoset, along with lamb.
 

Then Easter Sunday, Mitzi put together a Southern feast, jam session, and a beach party. Click for the slideshow.
