A ^Retired Plastic Surgeon's Notebook

This is TAFKAM (the artist formerly known as Mama)

Why Seattle Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Lisa Lynn Sowder, will not be blogging for a couple of weeks.

I’m taking a little break from work for two weeks. Trust me, I need a vacation and will come back a better doctor (and guitar player).

I’ll spend my first week at the Puget Sound Guitar Workshop (PSGW) which is held at the very rustic Pilgrim Firs Church Camp on Kitsap Pennisula.  Camp is only a 1 hour ferry ride and a 45 minute drive from Seattle but it might as well be on another planet.  It’s the closest thing to music heaven this side of, well, heaven.

After camp, I am spending a week in Northern Idaho at my mom’s  lake cabin.  Between dips in the cool, clear water of Lake Coeur d’Alene and endless repair projects on this 120+ year old cabin, I’ll be sitting on the front porch practicing all the licks, riffs and tricks I learned at PSGW.   I might even do a little sing along of  “Blister in the Sun” by the Violent Femmes.

I’ll be back at my day job August 15th and back to blogging.

Thanks for reading, Dr. Lisa Lynn Sowder

P.S.  I’ll be sure to wear my sunscreen!
