Just got back from Pennyrile Forest State Park, where we spent three days in the lodge. The acreage of deciduous forest is accentuated by a resplendent lake and dam system. 'Pennyrile' is a bastardization of 'Pennyroyal', an herb common to the area. Before we went, we saw my son play the bass drum for the North High Huskies. That is him, second to right in profile. Anyway, back to Pennyrile, while there I listened to my mp3 player a lot. There is this new band I found called 'The National' I dug bunches Other bands included Blonde Redhead, Lisa Gerrard, Dead Can Dance, David Bowie, Interpol, the Rapture, New Order, Electronic, Klaus Schultze, and a slew of others.
