After months of silence, I'm back!  We're kicking off the 2009 season this weekend with the Historic Winter Market in Frederick, MD, where I'll be demonstrating with the kickwheel.  Here's the tentative list of events for the season... some are still awaiting acceptance (or denial) while others are definites.
