UPDATES (since
Tuesday) in RED
HOME, SWEET HOME!
Larkspur Food & Flower
Festival, May 26, 2013
I’m back! –but still not
all here.
Ecstatic to be safely returned to Marvy Marin for my Music! Arrived late
Tuesday, and by Thursday evening was ready for some tunes – at Trek Winery for Mr. Dan Brown, accompanied by Doug Morton on keys.
On Friday Carlos and I hit the dance floor at Seahorse for THE MIGHTY GROOVE, and I could not contain my joy to be dancing
once again. Pneumonia, I've had enough!
Saturday night at George’s for two of my faves, The Tickets Band and James Moseley Dance Band! I expected to sit out a number of dances, but
perhaps I was too enthusiastic … but what fun!!
On Sunday at the Larkspur Food & Flower Festival my
feet could not keep up with Revolver
and Rudy and the Unauthorized Rolling
Stones. So many friends attending, so much love!! I love you back! Didn’t even get there in time to get some Doc Kraft …catch up with you soon, Doc!
Sorry it rained on your
parades, but I was happy to see the misty weather on Monday, so that I was not
compelled to go out and dance, and instead remained at home with Carlos for a
very restful stay-in day.
I’ll be doing a very
abbreviated calendar for awhile yet, until I get back into the swing.
Here’s what I have so
far – there will be many additions by Thursday and Friday, so check back.
Wishing good Health
& Happiness for y’all! ♫♪
