About 14" of snow overnight, and it's been 14 degrees F for a while. I went out and did most of the clearing I needed to before my hands got too cold--just have about four feet of the driveway yet to clear, though it's pretty thick there due to the county plowing. And. . . it's still snowing. projected for another four hours or more. . .we could get three to four inches more.

The price I pay for living in this wonderful area (as far as nature goes, people and restaurants qnd shopping etc. not so much).

Chilling out from all that exercise with Bobby Timmons "Sweet and Soulful Sounds" Riverside material from the German Jazz Plus release that also includes "Born to Be Blue". . .

My system is sounding so good in its current form. . . the transport to DAC connection is awesome and the ZBIT and ZROCK3 are making the SEWE300B sing. I feel so lucky.

Just got in from another bout of shoveling and am warming up my hands. There were about 3 more inches dropped since I was last out, and it's still coming down gently. Sigh. I think it's supposed to end. . . soon (?) Feels good to sit down in front of the system.

Now playing

I woke up relieved to see there was no snow overnight, none since early evening. . . after receiving a total of 16" in the previoius 24 hours. We are expecting more this afternoon and evening though, so shoveling is still in my immediate future! It's cold right now, 13 degrees.

Starting the day off with Jerry Garcia "Live at the Warwick," disc 2. 1991 is not my favorite period for Jerry, but there is some great performances in this set, especially keyboard work.

Wow, this is a hot (loud) LP. I love a recording where Marty Grosz is the harmonic rhythm core, and Gorge Duvivier makes an excellent partner here.

Banjo, Guitar – Marty Grosz
Bass – George Duvivier
Clarinet, Soprano Saxophone, Alto Saxophone – Bob Wilber
Clarinet, Soprano Saxophone, C-Melody Saxophone – Kenny Davern
Drums – Bobby Rosengarden
