I've arrived, and a bit after me came my guitar and suitcase, but I have both! The weather is now beautiful and I'm going out to walk my favorite city (been inside today, working on music and logistics to visit many wonderful friends and get to jams and gigs). I'm trying to locate an upright to borrow and thank everyone who is being so helpful in this quest! I've been meeting and have had the pleasure of playing with more musicians here. Much fun! Last night I went to hear some guys who play Dixieland. They were very good, and I loved the huge sousaphone. Tonight, the Blues Jam...tomorrow a day with friends...attending a concert in Versailles tomorrow night...Saturday with friends....Sunday, playing the Marathon de Paris and then a recording session...and so it goes...more next week, and I'll post again with details.

I love being here!!!!
