From WWR
Hello, Anon!
Thanks for stopping by. I change this a little bit every now and then and have tried to pare it down cuz it seems just a little unruly and rambling... sort of like me. Gone is the version of this page that had the book reviews and the section on my trip to Belize where I helped teach summer school with my friend who was there as a Peace Corps Volunteer. I think that can all be seen via the history of this page, though. Wiki is pretty amazing. Anyway, you can find out a little about me and my crazy life here.
I have also been putting pictures up at LuAnna's Gallery and have started a listing of concerts and gigs that Wheatheads around the world might like to know about. I am hoping that 'you will add to this one and help keep it current and meaningful. Check it out at Concert Alerts Ditto about the Festivals page.
This is Jimbob editing LuAnna's page because her Flickr photo album is just too good not to have a link to: LuAnna's great Flickr photo album with lots of music photos
Thanks, Jimbob!

Geographical Information
I live in Kansas. (in the blue house) This is the "wheat state" and while most of the state has strong agricultural happenings, I live in Wichita, a city where airplanes are built. The land in Kansas is pretty much flat, the trees are pretty much absent, and the weather here is pretty much out of control.
Weather in Wichita
Get directions to make your own weather banner and compare the weather in the places where some of the Wheatheads live on the Wheathead weather page.
Discography
I should say that I have always hated DISCO. Didn't like it then, don't like it now, and really don't have much of a sense of humor about those mirrored balls.
If this is about DISCS, I have hundreds, maybe thousands of CDs. I don't know why. I used to download tons of live shows in flac format or trade live shows with other people who also don't know why they did that. I think the word is obsessive.
True Confessions
- I am not a huge fan of this WWR stuff. I am barely over 5'2" tall. Maybe I could be called a short chubby fan of this WWR stuff.
- I avoid responsibilities by running away. Usually I run to music festivals such as the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas; Merlefest in Wilkesboro, North Carolina; and the three Planet Bluegrass festivals in Colorado, my favorite of which is Folks Festival. There is a page here at Whole Wheat to keep track of different festivals where you might get to meet up with a fellow Wheathead or hear some of the WWR artists.I took this picture of Alison Brown at Merlefest and i am putting it here so that it will be linked to a page.It's one of my favorite pictures.
- Between festivals, my addiction to acoustic music leads me to The Old Settlers Inn in Moundridge, Kansas and to The Iron Horse Concert Hall These and an occasional house concert are the best ways to support great live music and the musicians who make it.
- I have another job that most people don't know about. Every summer I work at the Great Plains Nature Center I teach a college workshop called "Spineless Wonders." Some people may be quick to think something else, but it is really about insects and other arthropods. Every year, we get women who think they are going to learn how to deal with their husbands.
- There is no such thing as spare time!

I have been traveling in the Pacific Northwest. Soon I will have pictures on my Flickr account. For now... here is a picture of Faith Petric that I want to share with you. I was pleasantly surprised to see her with the New Old Chautauqua last night on Lopez Island.
