Well whoops! The newsletter is late today. Just got back into town after spending 5 glorious days camping, dancing, and freezin in Telluride for the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. It was my first time attending and yes, I now understand why people make this event an annual tradition.

June 19 - June 25
Telluride Bluegrass Festival 2023

Well whoops! The newsletter is late today. Just got back into town after spending 5 glorious days camping, dancing, and freezin in Telluride for the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. It was my first time attending and yes, I now understand why people make this event an annual tradition. Despite the weather being less than ideal - we were evacuated from the festival (twice) because of lightning and hail . . . it was one of the most joyful experiences I've ever had. The music, the people, the scenery . . . if this festival isn't on your bucket list, it should be.
