Guitar Camp Offers More Than 'Kumbaya'

Nice story about Jorma Kaukonen & Fur Peace Ranch

At most camps, they sit around and sing “Kumbaya.” At the Fur Peace Ranch, they’re more likely to sing “Baby, Please Don’t Go” or “Nine Pound Hammer” or just about anything by the Rev. Gary Davis.

Located in the hilly farmland of southeastern Ohio, about two hours from Columbus, the Ranch was not created as a place for kids to hold potato sack races but rather for adults to polish their guitar and music skills. Dreamed up by world renowned guitarist Jorma Kaukonen and his wife Vanessa as far back as 1989, the camp has gradually evolved since then into an oasis for pickers who can escape their jobs and families for a long weekend as they indulge their fretboard fanaticism while eating well and making new friends.

Note to regular visitors/listeners

My wife has been very ill in the past month, and as a result I haven't been as all over my radio station tasks as usual.

Bear with me, I'm slowly getting back up to speed.

And remember, I always change the playlist at least once a week, no matter what.

Peace
Robert

Earth bakes in hottest quarter on record

• By Veronica Smith in Washington
• March 16, 2007

THE Earth has just experienced its warmest December-February since records began 128 years ago, adding fire to global warming concerns.

A US government agency reported a record warm January worldwide pushed average temperatures to 0.72C above normal for the 20th Century.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said it was the highest average temperature for the period since records began in 1880.

The report came less than a month after a UN panel said that global warming was almost certainly caused by human activity and several governments and international bodies have sounded the alarm over the need to cut carbon emissions.
