Blustery winds and 70 degree warmth makes this a typical late spring day but it is so very early. Nice to be out in though I am not. I spent some time putting away more boxed items from the Swamphouse and taking a load of excess crap to Goodwill Industries...mostly unused but undesirable lighting fixtures and bulbs and a pile of decorator pillows that we already have too many of. Good riddance!
Went to Chris's Club in Vallejo last night and it was a mighty fine couple of sets I'll tell you. The Bay Area Blues Society never fails to please! We have come to know and adore them, each and every one. Ron on the Strat, David "Stix" on drums, Wylie on vocals, Ron the bassist, Rob on the keyboards. They are wonderful, full of musical talent and the deep joy of the blues! The food is good too, our usual are 4 Deluxe burgers with fries...$4.50! Yes, you read correctly! Such a bargain these days when hamburgers are going for 10 -14 dollars in a fine restaurant. And they are exceptional! The chef has won a prize for his version of Cajun dishes. I love the bloody place, a dive it is, but oh what a dive! 6 pm on Mondays and Thursdays, 656 Benecia Road, Vallejo. Worth it, really worth it!
Mike is off to his doctors today to see how that arm and hand are doing. He is in pain when using it and I have high hopes that it'll heal completely though it may take some time and lots of physical therapy. He's really good with it too, being as careful as he can so as to not re-injure it. He wants to get back to work so bad I see it and hear it in his words and looks. He loves his work and to work! He HAS a Work Ethic! Rare these days in the US of A.
