(Community Matters) Busy day – Marfa Public Radio Corp board meeting. Our board president unexpectedly needed to resign as he’ll be spending most of next year in Mexico. I agreed to step up as our next President. Ginger Reeder has agreed to serve as VP, Kay Burnett as Secretary and John Wotowicz our Treasurer/Finance Chair.
We’re in the middle of exceptionally busy times, just having closed on the purchase of the Midland/Odessa public radio channel. Our GM, Tom Michael, Rachel Osier Lindley & Anne Adkins are strong, and we’re like the dog which has caught the milk truck – holy shit & this is exciting!
Dinner with Steven at the MiniRooster – really, really good. Fire roasted acorn squash w/ lime & Hawaiian black sea salt; beets with a rocket salad; sweet potato fries and we shared a pulled pork entree (served on blackeyed peas and greens with corn bread). In town and at the restaurant: Dick & Janie DeGuerin, also Rachel & Chase Lindley w/ Rhett (who’s just turning 2 months).
Back home reading – yeah, Steven caught me
