It Came In The Mail

In the late 1980s I heard The Choir for the first time and went nuts over their music. The first time I saw them in concert was 1990. They were touring to support "Wide-Eyed Wonder." I remember being totally blown away. The music was relevant and the lyrics were not shallow. I was hooked for life and I began to look for all of their music.

Last year The Choir recorded an acoustic version of one song from each of their albums. The result is "de-plumed."
This year Derri Daugherty stepped up to the plate and released an instrumental album of atmospheric guitar work entitled "Clouds Echo In Blue" and this is his chance to shine. This is a beautiful album of instrumental music that is perfect for those cold nights when all you want is a cup of hot chocolate and a good book.

It is always good to open packages that come in the mail.

Good-Bye Bill

In February of 2008 we bought a cargo trailer.

Since it is our custom to name everything he got the title of

Wild Bill.

Wild Bill actually got used a whole lot.

He made a few trips with us

but he was used for storage more than anything else.

Bill recently got a face lift inside.

We painted his walls white and the floor red.

He actually looked pretty nice.

Then he got sold.

Wild Bill has moved down the street to a new family.

Who (or what) will be sold next?

We have sold Tex, (our camper)

and now Wild Bill!

Stay tuned. It looks like we may be selling

a long time family member.
