After church tonight, Jenna and I are heading up to visit Mark and Kay Johnson and then heading out west to spend some time camping in Glacier National Park. We are extremely excited. It is such a beautiful place and will be nice to get away from some of the busyness of life and relax in the mountains. We will also be spending some time with Kevin and Heidi and the boys, and so that will be fun as well. I hope to be able to post some pics along the way, but we’ll see. Otherwise I will when we get back. Pray for safe travels and that we can manage to stay away from the bear since it is their home after all and we are just visiting.
On a totally different subject, I recently got the solo album from Glen Hansard, who is the singer/songwriter for The Frames”. The cd is entitled the “swell season” and I would highly recommend it. I recorded one of the songs off of this cd for the fun of it and I really like how it turned out. Click on the link to hear it or download it.
Let me know what you think.

Ok so here is my story. A while ago i listened to this song and I was entertained I thought you did a good job with it…honestly. But I was too lazy to write anything…which seems really lazy I know.
Then Fitz bugs me and tells me I should check out this Glen Hansard fellow. I saw he was in a movie and I watched the trailer. In the trailer this song appears. I thought to myself man that sound’s really familiar….nah this guy is new I ain’t never heard it before… I later heard the song in its entirety and then I made the connection…hey wait a minute…Markson did this song! So I gotta say good pick with the artist, and I honestly think you did a good job with recording too, I have it now in my music library.

thanks man. Yes, I really like the whole CD. I haven’t seen the movie yet, but I really want to. How are things across the pond?
