tinhuvielartanisI made it over to Lew's last night, even though, by day's end, I didn't feel like going anywhere but home and to bed. My desire to see him outweighed work disgust and exhaustion, so on the road I went, heading for Llewellyn.
I got there around 6:30 and we worked on his computer for a bit. I'm trying to get him hooked up to AOL during this interim period until he can get back the cable access after he attains a permanent domicile for himself and Mel. For some reason the dial-up modem he bought wasn't compatible to his system (XP can be a bitch), so he's going to have to exchange modems and start from scratch.
After a couple of hours of working on the computer, to no avail, and brief dinner break and a wondrous leg and back massage courtesy of Llewellyn, it was time to make music.
We focused our efforts on two songs: 'Wildflowers' by Tom Petty and 'Let It Be' by the Beatles. Lew sang 'Wildflowers' and played guitar, and I accompanied on harmony. I sang 'Let It Be' with Lew on guitar. We did remarkably well, this being our first time to dig our heels into making some real music. Our voices meld well and Lew is a just a wonder on the guitar. I'm beyond pleased and felt so much better when I left Lew as compared to when I came to him last night.
Maybe we should quit working altogether and become travelling hippie bards. Of course, we'd have to have a VW bus and a dog named Boo.
