The folks converged on Telluride again this summer to celebrate the 50th Anniverary of the Bluegrass Festival. For me Telluride has always been the grandaddy of them all.

All Hail Ra
Back around four and half millenniums ago or millennia if you prefer, the supreme deity of the Egyptian pantheon ruled the sky.

Dirt Diary #1
I’m pretty sure that the Path to Enlightenment and the Stairway to Heaven aren’t paved in silver and gold or asphalt and concrete. I’m betting they’re covered in dirt.
