Report #63

This week's poem is a haiku called "River Trip." It comes from a recent afternoon spent taking a driftboat on the Yellowstone, stopping several times to search for morels and oyster mushrooms. We found very few of the former and many of the latter, and the trees and shrubs were alive with birds.

Music this week is "These Foolish Things" from the Johnny Griffin Quintet's Grab This! (Riverside, 1962). The album features Griffin on tenor sax, Paul Bryant on organ, Joe Pass on guitar, Jimmy Bond on bass and Doug Sides on drums.
