Forrest Fenn's treasure

We will soon give our search for Forrest Fenn's hidden treasure another go, even if we live so far away from New Mexico and the mountainous areas nearby. This nut is really hard to crack. Eventually, someone has to find it, preferably before Fenn kicks off. In the end, it will seem so obvious. People will just say, "Oh, that was so simple, we should have figured it out long ago." 

Forrest Fenn

Nobody has said that they have found the Fenn Treasure in New Mexico so I guess there's still time for me to formulate a theory about where it is and go look for it. I just might be right. What have I got to lose? I live almost next door. 

Bait and Switch?

I just received the new brochure from the Spencer Theater in Alto New Mexico. It's a two and a half hour drive from here and it's a nice theatre - seats about six hundred. We have played there twice. The announcement of the upcoming season got me thinking that it didn't start out this way. When the theatre was inaugurated, a few years back, the main items on the menu consisted of top-of-the-line classical concert artists from the U.S. and abroad - the thing is well-funded. Now, looking at the sixteen dates on the calendar, there is not a single classical music show scheduled. It's all about Annie, Oliver, The Pajama Game, Bye Bye Birdie, Footloose, Crystal Gayle, etc.. Why are they like that? Maybe they got tired of so much classical stuff? As the saying goes, he who pays the piper calls the tune. Perhaps we'll never play there again. The last time was when we played for Olga Kern, the piano player. She turned out to be a surly, childish, arrogant, and almost condescending person. Why does the Spencer Theater hate classical music now?
