It has been over a week since I put something here.  That is too long.

If I am not writing here it means I am writing something else.  I can’t be two places at once.

Music has taken my evenings of late to a degree.  I have been writing a few new songs and this weekend I will go into the studio to demo these songs with my friend Jerry Brown in the house.  Jerry is an artist.  I asked if he would design the cover of my new CD that is a work in progress.  I certainly hope we get there.

I saw Jerry and his brother, Harv, and his son, Clay, last week at the Brownstown Central- North Harrison Lady Cat basketball game at BC.

The Brown boys were wrapping up the radio broadcast.  On the right is another dear old friend, Barry Hall.

North Harrison’s Lady Cats went into The Pit at BCHS and dominated the Lady Braves.  It was a great win for NH.

It is always good to enjoy the long drive home.

Before the game I walked out on Brownstown Central’s new turf field for the first time.  The goal posts I kicked on as a kid and teenager were not there, replace by nice new yellow ones.  It was all kind of surreal.  I was out there alone and it was a good thing.  I was kind of speechless.  Between the new stadium going in and now a new field, my boyhood field of dreams is a memory.  North Harrison didn’t beat Brownstown Central 59-0 on that field when I was a junior in high school.  We beat BC on that “space”.  Oh well.  That’s progress for you.

Looking forward to coming back in September to watch the Cougars take on the Braves.

Gulity pleasure.  I wrote this post listening to 1977’s Barry Manilow Live.  I had the LP when I was a kid. Now I have the CD.  Sans the scratches a nine year old kid puts on a record album, this stuff sounds better than ever.  I was all about Weekend in New England over forty years ago and I still love it and I am proud of it!

Now that is truly Speaking the Rights!
