I enjoyed a lovely morning up on Buck Prairie yesterday. Snow had fallen overnight, the sun had come out, and the surface in the sunny areas seemed like it was covered in tiny diamonds. I was the first in snowshoes for the day. I was about the fourth car there. When I left, before noon, the parking lot off Dead Indian Memorial Road was packed.

Baskery is opening for the Foo Fighters in May at the BottleRock Napa Festival in California. I may be checking out the Foo Fighters at Roskilde Festival the following month. I say may because I’m teaching Friday of the festival and may not make it to Roskilde on that night. If Neurosis is going on Friday evening I will be there though.

Haven’t seen these guys for over four years. Looks like they’ve merged with Into the Open Earth.

Snowy Medford from the air

I’ve flown into Medford dozens of times over the years (usually after dark), but two days ago, on our way back from Las Vegas (Sedona and the Grand Canyon), was the first time I’ve seen Medford look anything like this on an aerial approach.

Today’s photo was taken in Beatty, Oregon about 3 hours before the winter solstice.

Medford airport runway

Two years ago today, this was the view as the chartered plane taking the SOU football team to Daytona, Florida was about to leave the earth.
