Music Fun Week of January 8, 2013

UPDATES in RED
The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is to celebrate!  [ with thanks to Dove Chocolate …]

The hills are alive with making green. And lots of coyotes seen and heard in my ‘hood.
This past week: Stopped by TREK Winery for a quiet early evening with Carlos & Trish. Thanks to Beth & Knut at Sunnbolt for putting together their monthly jam. On Saturday Carlos & I headed to Antioch to visit his sister and pick our fill of oranges from her 2 trees. Luckily the rain held off until we were finished!  Had to toss a coin for Saturday night, and pals The Tickets Band won--at Presidio Yacht Club. We missed Black Market Blues at Hopmonk—and several friends said it was a fabulous show.  On Sunday Harold Jones & The Bossmen produced another class act at San Geronimo Golf Club. Great to see so many of you there!

Tonight the Pro Jam at Hopmonk; Wednesday the Corte Madera Big Band Dance; Friday Danny Click at The Sleeping Lady?, or perhaps Eric McFadden at Hopmonk, (sure is nice to have a great spot in the neighborhood!) or Terrapin Crossroads; Saturday the James Moseley Band Dance Party at Seahorse --definitely!  Perhaps The Lonestar Retrobates at PYC on Sunday if we’re able!  Looks like another good week of musical entertainment for this gal!

Blessings as you begin your personal journey again each day.  ♪♫♪
