As various members of this mailing list were our west last week (some
horseback riding), me, Michelle, and Peter Brown put on our cowboy boots,
chaps, and 10 gallon hats to play a few sets about horses and alt-country
in general.  As well other songs were played for reasons I highlight
below.

Michelle and I just got back from a 5 day canoe trip this weekend to
Algonquin park, it was very exhausting but fun.  Although Michelle
threatened to play a set about camping last weekend she never did, so we
will this week, if you have songs about camping, canoeing, being outdoors,
or songs that just remind you of any of these things, send them along.

Note 1: Played to prove to Linda I have this album
Note 2: Dedication to people studying for a Law and Ethics exam
Note 3: I have really liked every song I've played by Chicklet
Note 4: Played because Michelle had a bad reaction to a bee sting
Note 5: Played because Michelle and I saw and really liked a Canadian film
called "Better than Chocolate", very good, but contains mature subject
matter (why do you think I went).
