The Western Folklife Center has entered the blogosphere. Read our staff blog about the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering at www.westernfolklifecenter.wordpress.com. Kristin Windbigler, a long-time Deep West Video filmmaker, also blogged for us at www.mountaingirl.com. She wrote about her latest Deep West Video which is called, “Hello, Goodbye! A Guide to Waving in the Country,” which premiered at the Gathering on Thursday, January 28. We were also joined by a third blogger, Dan Gudgel, a stage manager at the Gathering. In Dan's blog, Herding Cowboys: Backstage at the National Cowboy Poetry Gathering , he gives us a behind-the-scenes perspective.
