Totally counter cultural

By Rich

Dear Rich,

My name is Jana. I am a student at Fox and had the privilege of seeing you perform in chapel and your A Clear Leading ( I Dreamed I Was Free) act. They were both amazing.

My friend Liz called to see if we could use some complimentary tickets to a concert of the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra at Carnegie Hall. Joyce couldn't make it, but my friend Fritz was in from Portland to shoot a wedding, for which he used me as his "second shooter." That was great fun!

The climbing stump

By Rich

The youth of the church where I'll be performing Beyond the Chariots (www.RichDrama.com) tonight were dismayed to discover that their climbing tree (and some of their parents' climbing tree) had to be taken down because it was dying of disease. It will live on in woodwork.

Tonight's performance will ...

Friends at our church recently posted the following:
