The sounds of spring.
Birds singing Children playing and the call of seagulls.The sky was a pefect blue,Our garden in in good shape thank to Nancy and the lawn and porch is ready for outdoor enjoyment Thanks to both Nancy and Dan!
Today I went for a very enjoyable bikeride after work.I had a few things to get.Claritan D topped my list.I love this time of the year but the only hard part is the allergies.
I worked on the newsletter last night,copied it today at our local library and will mail it out tomorrow after work.
I also mailed out a few mixes and will start emailing mix club members to tell them who their lucky mix partner is.
This time of the year I also start to see yard sales.I have a little can of change Im saving for such an occasion.Last year I made out pretty well.Some years I do well with yard sales and other years I don't.
Last years was mostly a success because of Knight and KC.I dont know if I'll have a lucky streak 2 years in a row but only time will tell.
Memorial Day weekend seems to be the popular weekend for yard sales and garage sales!

new updates and idle chatter
Thursday I went into work and was a tad early so I went into the boiler room for a cup of coffee ans there next to the boiler was my handtruck with new wheels!Franks not one to take money for tasks he thinks are small but I want to give him something.
I tried to ask him where he got the wheels and he said he stole em off a wheelchair in the hospital.I wanted to tell him I knew he was full of --it but held my tongue!
I'll get him a gift card for Dunkin Donuts or something like that.
Today I went Over to Cafe de Point for a Blueberry Muffin.There was some interesting artwork on the wall and they were going to have the featured artist come tonight.The sky was looking grey but if it cleared up Id go check it out.
Sadly the weather was still iffy at 6pm so I just had dinner and 2 big glasses of wine.
Tonight I finished my new mix but i'll post it sometime this week because Part one might get some re-working.
Tinight I gave Nancy a bottle of Luna de Lune for mothers day.THAT put a smile on her face!

Giving Obama a thumbs up!
My Repblican Father and Uncleare likely to chastize me for this when we meet up in heaven but here it goes!
The handling of recent events by President Obama gets a thumbs up from me.Hes right NOT to show us pics of a dead OBL.
Showing such pics would only put fuel on the fire of hatred in the Taliban.
Lets also remember Bin Laden not only commited acts of terrorism in the US but in Africa,Spain,England and Afganistan.
Im sure folks in other parts of the world are quietly breathing a sigh of releif Bin laden has been eliminated but dare not so so publicaly for fears of more terrorists acts on their country.
Perhaps now we can try to extand the olive branch of peace to the muslim world and eliminate hatred.I hope a new era of peace and healing can begin.

Shelby Lynne Music review
Heres another artist who has been popping up on my radar musically.She has a bluesy soulish feel to her.It takes you back to another time.
Imagine what Aretha Franklin and Bonnie Raitt would sound like if they got together to record.Kachow.Shelby Lynne!
I give her 2 Thumbs up!

The Black Angels music review
I was recently exposed to a band called the black angels so I went on our Library website and ordered one of their CDs.I am listening to a CD of theres Called Phospene Dream.
They bring back the psychedic sound of the 60s.complete with fuzzy sounds echos and feed back.Im glad I borrowed this CD.If you want to hear a new band with a great sound The Black Angels are well worth a listen.You will dig them man.they're far out!

Breakfast and a car show
Today when my alarm went off I got up right away.I got dressed and Helene picked me up and we went to the Ocean Bay Diner and had pancakes,coffee and chatted.I made here new cards for her painting business and she likes them and wants more.I made her a set of 10 just to see if she aproved and she does!I love when I do things right.lol!
When I got home I checked my email and took a little nap and headed off to the car show at 1:30.
When I was going down Bay Ave I heard a heavy bass.It was a group of Zumba dancers.I wonder of that was planned and if they hooked into Ed Austins Sound System.
DJ Tommy Lynch was in his spot in Front of Ocean County Music.He did a shout out to me and i was Touched.He played Hey Little Cobra by the Ripcords for me too!Being It was a car show I thought that song was fitting!
Also There was the Gentleman with the Adam 12 car.I saw so many well maintained old cars.I dint look too closely at the dashboard though.Some of then have CD players and that just ruins the originality for me.Its like making Big Ben digital.
it was a nice day.Around 2:20 the sun went in and it was getting chilly.I had my beach jacket in my backpack and pulled it out and put it on.
All in all it was a nice weekend!
