Especially proud of the 34th consecutive Mandolin Player of the Year nomination. And a nomination for my love letter to John Hartford’s music, Album of the Year—RADIO JOHN: SONGS OF JOHN HARTFORD.

We had some quiet family time with Jessica and her kitten, (5 month old) Peach, here in Nashville = something the 3 of us haven’t had together at Thanksgiving for a few years now. Here’s hoping for Peace, health, happiness, tolerance and understanding for the upcoming Holidays. We’re thankful and grateful for so much and for all of you.
