There’s a house concert at the home of David Abbene and Geri Gibbs, at 2144 West Charleston in Chicago’s ravaged Bucktown area. The date is October 22 and the time is 8pm. Vernon will swap sets with his pal Brian Cutean, who’s visiting from Oregon. He promises that those sitting in the nearest two rows will get a free sputum sample. To make reservations, call David and Geri at (773) 342-0238 or, if that makes you too nervous, email me at vatonges@gmail.net and I’ll set it up for you.

Here are samples of Vernon’s handmade greeting cards. They are handpainted on heavy cardstock and come with a matching envelope individually packed in clear mylar sleeves. They go for $7 each which is a bargain, really, don’t you agree? You can buy individually or packs of a dozen (no two alike!) for $75. Email Vernon at vatonges@iwic.net to order!

Most sincere thanks to all in the magical land of Arkansas who made our visit so fine, and especially to Emily Kaitz for housing us, Kelly & Donna and Phil & Allison for feeding us, and Tom & Peggy Meringer for hosting such a lovely house concert. And to everyone else who came to the show, let us swim in their pool, gave good Scrabble, put chicken on the hot bar, and who always make us feel so welcome in our Ozarky home away from home. It gets harder to leave every time. Someday we just won’t. Leave, that is…
