I have an old college buddy coming by tomorrow to spend the night with his wife. Jayne and I have not met her and only seen him once3 in 38 years. I am excited and can't wait for the opportunity to renew an old acquaintance.

Brookwoods rehearsed this evening for a couple hours and annoying as it is to not rehearse enough, we sounded like we been playing every night! I love to play music. I am vowing to perform more this next year!   

Last week my 7 staff members took me to Six Flags, a roller Coaster amusement park, and made me ride everything there! It was great fun and although I didn't look forward to it, it turned out to be a hoot!

Carrie, my youngest, is in England this week and is going to visit a friend who is also a chef who has parents with a home on the golf course that the British Open is being played on this weekend. She is really looking forward to this, but most importantly, Carrie is one of those people who firmly believes in " do something. Take a chance, go out on a limb. She has lots of great life experiences but mostly because she puts herself in a position to " get lucky" by simply doing stuff. The other night she held the phone out thew window in TOrino Italy so I could hear the folks cheering for an Italy goal in the WOrld cup match. SHe has been working as a pastry chef in a castle hotel just for room and board this summer and is now doing a bit of last minute travel before returning to the mundane work world.

Life is a journey, not a destination. I hope you all have a nice night and hope to hear from you all tomorrow. By the way, tomorrow is Bastille Eve, so sharpen up your guillotines!
