Rolling Stone Keith Richards has been hospitalized for a concussion in New Zealand. He fell out of a palm tree during a vacation at the Wakua Club in Fiji.

If you'd like to know more about his vacation, Thursday I happened to run into a woman I know who spent the week at the same resort and had just returned the night before. There were only 6 guests that week (it's on a private island): Keith and his wife Patti Hansen, Ron Woods and his wife and Nancy and her husband. I wrote up her account of the week over at 5280.com, where I blog about Colorado issues.

She reports Keith and Ron were great company. They went in the water, lounged around, read books, drank and yakked it up with the island's other four guests. The rockers shared bottles of vodka during the day and switched to rum drinks at night. Bob, a doctor, even made a housecall to their burre one night.

Too bad Nancy and Bob didn't stay an extra day -- Bob could have been on hand Thursday when Keith fell.
