life AFTER Labor Day

well to say this entry is over due would be an understatement since my last one was July 8...needless to say it was a busy season and though it technically ended w/Labor Day I'm still "gigging" locally and catching up on things that should have been done during the craziness of summer: oil changes, paper work, cleaning the garage...other than walking Winston to the beach and back in the morning, I don't get to the beach for enjoyment during the season so yesterday I actually walked alone to the beach, fell asleep, woke to watch the dolphins swim by (& wave!) went next door to Art's Place for a burger, beer and conversation...was a nice relaxing Sunday...tried it again today but the sun didn't cooperate...oh well...

Lots of radio play going on for Let the Door Swing Wide. If you're not on my email list, email me and I'll keep you posted on the stations w/emails as well as scheduling of venues...

If anyone has an area you'd like me to visit/blitz, supply me with some venues and/or churches to contact and I'll give it a shot!

No there are no new cds in the works...I'm taking a break from the studio for now...I love you Kenny but...

I'm still seeing lots of folks on the weekends coming to visit...you can always email or phone before or once you're here regarding venues I'm scheduled at...I'm always working on new ones... I'm available for singing at holiday parties ...and I'm booking weddings for 09 already.

Played in Columbia (NC just 1 hour west of OBX) a few weeks ago at Vineyards on the Scuppernug...beautifully done winery...if you're going through Columbia and you're a wine fan, (or if you're not you might be after stopping!) take time to stop...tell Grace and Jack I sent you!

Started Saturday eves at Beach Bread Company this past weekend...nice crowd, thanks for joining me...had some folks come in who heard At Last playing at the Wanchese Pottery in Manteo (thank you Bonnie & Bob) that afternoon and checked out the web site to find me! Marketing 101 DOES work! I'm also still at the Beach Bread Co and Bagels to Beef for lunch during the week...and Holy Redeemer & Holy Trinity for weekend masses.

My little birthday kitty, CJ, has doubled in size but she still has that little kitten face...adorable...and we have another new kitten as well...he was an orphan Winston and I brought home one earlier than usual morning from our walk...

his name is Toby (which means I'm told "God is good" ) and he is a beautiful snowball white with 3 Ash Wednesday smudges on his forehead where he was obviously touched by the angels! We should all be so blessed...

see ya on the road...
