OOTO Open Thread...

It’s time for my yearly pilgrimage to the High Desert of central Oregon, so I’m going to be out of the office from Sunday morning until Tuesday afternoon. In that light, what we have here is an Official Open Thread. The subject will tentatively be the following:

What do you do to recharge your songwriting batteries? These yearly trips for me out to the complete and utter desolation of the Oregon/Nevada border completely bleach my mind, and when I come back I’m Full Of Techno™ for months to come.

I do realize that everyone has different methods, and it’s time to share. I won’t be chiming in on this thread at all, as I’ll be in a part of the state completely immune to the electromagnetic spectrum, so no cell phones, no internet, no Twitter, no Michael Jackson conspiracy theories. Just me and my Silvertone archtop and the sagebrush. So it’s up to you guys to make it interesting. You know the drill. Type at you when I get back.
