Om Mani Padme Home 

Good morning! 9:45 and 45 degrees. Right angle temperatures. Yes, I'm writing this with the morning coffee. The body has been up since about 8:30, but it takes my mind a bit longer..

Music news. I have a job on December 30th at Boone's. 5:30 to 7:30. Jazz and whatever. Hope to see you there!

It's someone else's gig. These days I'm trying to concentrate on my own groups and projects, but I do make a few exceptions. Ocean State can usually get me to pinch-hit for them, and Rob Killam(who booked this thing on the 30th)is someone who's helped me over the years. He's been my bass player enough times that I can be his guitar player when needed. 

I did send a note to Sheila with the Arts Council, as far as lining up another Sam Gig. She's sending out an email with available dates later this month. So I will soon have a gig of my own to invite you to. Also hoping to do an Artist-on-the-Plaza thing this coming year. An hour of solo guitar. I'm always wrecked afterwards, but it's fun..

Domestic/Old Guy news. Getting some things fixed that I should've done long ago, but better late than never. My front porch is looking a lot better, with a much-needed facelift and some new latticework.

As far as the interior of the house, some problems there as well. Plumbing problems. But I have somebody to attend to that as well. I was elated seeing my porch repaired. Having two working bathrooms will probably send me into a state of rapture. 

So that's my news across the board. Things are looking up as we head toward another year. Thanks as ever for stopping in and reading. Happy Tuesday to you! I'm outa here. More later. PS today's tune is from my album Uncharted Waters. Hope you like it.
