Back on the Mule Trek

(Republished from November ‘05.)
Exactly one month to the day from my bypass procedure, with doctors’ approval, I was able to resume the Mule Trek. A short flight from Dulles to Birmingham to visit The Alabama Theatre. The concert was mellow Mule with some of my favorites; a double-take from Warren Haynes was a wonderful highlight.
Limousine service was provided by Michelle and Duane, and their lovely Chihuahua pupsters. The trip to Atlanta on a gorgeous autumnal day was quite enjoyable. The concert, at The Tabernacle (pictured above), was totally different than the night before…sophisticated and groovy. Gregg Allman sat in for four songs! After a night at Bobbie Jo’s home, Southern Living made manifest, we returned to the venue for yet another experience entirely. The show was sensory overload and rockin’ to the core.
Flight back to Dulles with my best mule pal and a return to my homeland, a somewhat quieter place now that Chaz has returned to Golden.
