I miss Glenn Frey And I haven't been to Winslow since they erected that display, gotta get back there someday!

I'm looking forward to the next two nights away from SB work, then it's gonna get a little crazy workwise and the traffic is gonna be nuts in Phoenix. Think I better squeeze in some guitar playing and reading this week!

Up at 6:00 AM. Getting out with my Gdaughter today in the 55 mph wind gusts. At least it will be above freezing today.

Have a good Wednesday everyone.

Starting up my work week closing the store tonight. Ugh, I don't like "Mondays."

Stay warm Val!

Astro, do you play acoustic or electric guitar or both?

Have a good day all!

"Rise & Shine"...and that means you, too, Punxsutawaney Phil!
Get up & out of there so you can bring us an early Spring!

Smell the coffee, " babe...I got you babe...I got you babe..."

Happy Groundhog Day! (As long as I don’t have to see that movie again….I watched it once and it drove me nuts!)

We have the equivalent of water groundhogs...Nutria - oh - and beavers, on my river. I thought GH Day was yesterday...but don't trust me on calendars, seasons, holidays. I nearly always get it wrong.

Have a good one, Earlies.

2:19AM, I've got coffee!

Electric, but I'd love to have a small parlor acoustic someday. I play a Squire Tele and a vintage Fender Lead I. All different genre of music, mostly classic rock but some country, blues, and a little folk and heavy metal too. I'm terrible at it but have a blast playing!

Val, that sounds brutally cold so please cover up and stay warm and safe!

Made a banana cream pie last night, I think it'll be perfect with a cup of hot black coffee!

Enjoying my morning coffee with you all at the Sober Cafe.

Winter is actually hitting us for a few days, with single digit temperatures, which is cold for here. Our January temperatures averaged nearly ten degrees above normal.

Have a good day all!

Awake a little after 5:00 AM.

My father was from Pennsylvania and always joked about Punxsutawney. I thought he made it up when I was young so one year he took me there when we were visiting his family. He grew up during the depression in Narrytown which is no longer there I guess. It was in the coal mining sticks and had a general store and beer joint. The facilities were an outhouse until around 1970. I loved going there. I’ve often thought about trying to find what’s left of it.

The sunshine was wonderful yesterday and more today without brutal wind gusts. Taking 18 year old Gson to a Dr appointment and hitting Walmart which is my least favorite place.

Happy Thursday everyone.

"Rise & Shine" to a Brand New Day!

The sunny day yesterday also produced a shadow that scared the ground hog back into hiding for 6 more weeks! But, he will be alright and so will we!

CK,
You made me smile because the Caddyshack vermit is a gopher (not to be confused with a golfer or a groundhog!)

" I'm alright...don't nobody worry 'bout me..." Caddyshack theme for today!
