Thanks to:
Sue, Alyce and Jake for the sanity that never arrives and the love that never leaves.
Ray, Breathe, Hal, Bradly and Jim for their excellent playing and friendship.
Glenn Hampson and all at Castle Pacific Publishing for the open doors.
Sylvia Robertson for her live recording of the park performance.
Jack Hardy for his encouragement and inspiration and for allowing the "Folk Process" to occur in my adapting his tune for "The Puddingstone Songwriter's Colony," a song I dedicate to him, and to all my new friends at Camp Coho--Kerrville, TX
(Jack's song is "The Halloween Parade" from his album "The Passing.")
David Lange for all that I learned by looking over his shoulder.

An extra special thanks to Heidi Muller, Janis Carper and Amy Read for being my family away from home, for being an inspiration wherever I am, and for lending their voices to this effort. Janis, especially, dealt with my neuroses during this project.

I dedicate this album to the beautiful valley I've lived in for the past four years. To the place and the people. Both have given me a sense of belonging I've never felt before. Extra portions for my fellow Libby Creekers.
