the air is dry and crisp. This full moon brings good tidings I believe.
Heavenly stars shine brightly in the sky this evening.
I can almost imagine what it must have felt like to be a traveler through
the desert during the 1800s under such a bright moon.
This western sky is extremely beautiful. I am grateful . . .

" been a long time comin' "

Well . . . today I purchased a loop station.
this method of recording / performing has been on my
list for quite awhile, and finally I have an opportunity to take
creative ideas to this level of technology.
It's about time, tom . . . .

SATURDAY NOVEMBER 10

. . . We have had a fantastic Saturday !
We found an amazing tree nursery and rock yard " Stoneworld Company".
They've got a couple of acres of  beautiful cut stone , raw stone , flag, etc.
We purchased a concrete bird bath complete with mosaic bath bowl.

I auditioned this afternoon at the Mt. Charleston  lodge;  with gentle snowfall
as my backdrop , visible through the large windows behind their stage.
A roaring happy fire, in the round center fireplace of the room , added to my
delight as patrons responded positively with applause and complimentary nods
during  my 30 min.set .  I got the gig ! Every Saturday 5-8pm during December.
I will post updates here on the blog about these shows.
I have never played gigs in a ski lodge. 7,600ft. above sea level is a long way
from the St. louis bayou. ( smiles)

Work has begun . our new Christmas song is alive and well. our basic layout has been
established and I strongly believe this is something very worthwhile , at least so far as
Christmas songs go. LK is onboard from his studio and I am building my little
work station for recording  new music right here in Las Vegas. Internet collaboration !
Video is up on the site , thank you mr.  CP for those efforts from Pennsylvania ..
 We are thoroughly enjoying life , especially with the cool dry air ( 70's) here in the
desert southwest. More to come regarding the long distance cooperation .
