I had  some good moments onstage tonight. some songs played
which I had not covered in  years. memories. other stages in
other cities. friends lost , musical comrades scattered within  fragments
of moments in their own lives. Tam was there with me.

at my father's funeral , my cousin Paula was speaking about him and her
memories of him as her uncle Charles. When she asked me to describe my
father with only one word, I responded with : resilient .
tonight  . . .i felt resilient.

2012 HOLIDAZE

well , it seems as though the craziness of the season : with the Thanksgiving /Christmas  celebrations
and family gatherings, and the shopping, and the festivities and the travel , is all finally winding down.
J a n u a r y  soon come with freshness, and quiet winter beauty, as a new year shall unfold, and we
look forward to spring and the birth of newness .
time to get back to recording . . .

WINTER SOLSTICE

this time of year reminds me that the shortest daylight  winter days, are completely
opposite our experience on June 21.
delicate balance . How fragile it is . . . .

EARLY WINTER

The solo acoustic shows have been going well. I am increasing my musical following
and enjoying the atmosphere at the Mt. Charleston Lodge .
Recording at home. We are in the early stages of the next original music project.
