Minnesota!

We have a faux pas du jour tour item: Turns out Brett brought two pairs of right shoes, his ubiquitous Birkenstocks!

We ate at the Queen of Sheba, an Ethiopian restaurant in downtown Worthington, Minnesota. The downtown seems fairly dead, as sprawl has taken over out of town with box stores, Pizza Huts, etc.,--everyone was at the Ground Round on the strip on a Friday evening.

Instead, we were the only diners at this restaurant, where one cook made all 8 dishes on the menu for us, and we ate family style, on a oilcloth clad table with Al Jareera news in the background. It was wonderful.

Our first concert tonight, in nearby Windom. Bob has called a rehearsal for this afternoon, for some polishing. The acoustics right by the pool are great, but he'll probably insist on a real room!

  2. I don't know if Bob is keeping up with the news but there was an article in the Times this morning noting the passing of Miriam Makeba.

  3. I know how to twitter, but it would have to be someone out there on the road! Eric has his laptop, so, maybe...
