An essential album/CD

When I was a little girl I heard Neil Youngs song after the gold rush! Years later when I was in high Schhool as asked for it for Christmas!
 Its one of the greatest albums of the 1970s

an epic day of photography

Yesterday started out as a average Sunday. I went to the Beach House annual Surfboard swap and I a few people looking at the water tower and taking pictures. Someone said there was a bald eage up there.
 Some say wild life photography is alot about being in the right place at the right time. well I guess its true

Unknow to me my luch was going to continue! I went to a friend house and saw a Prating Mantis!

OK not an uncommon sight around here but it was an interesting shot  yeah a squirrel in a tree

Last but not least a shot of a neat sscenic shot at my fave Bay Head Cafe Burks Market

OK well thats it for now. I'll upload the 2 part video from this weekend after work tomorrow

A few years ago I discovered Soundway records. My discovery and education on world music continues! The tracks on the compilation is very Dance able! Being I love African Beats The Meridian Brothers and Bomba Estereo are 2 of my faves so far.

A Blast from the Past

When I was young my Dad had Herb Alpert playing alot. sometimes he would drive me to the bus stop on rainy days and he would have Herb Alpert playing in the cars 8 track player while smoking a pipe!
When I was in 8th grade he gave me his copy of Whipped Cream and other delights! At the time I was into the Bay City Rollers and KC and the Sunshine band so I guess that was his way of introducing me to real music and helping me expand my horizons musically! It worked. Thanks Dad!
