Now in Sacramento, California

Finishing out my first week here in Sacramento…whew, what a week it has been.  Not used to the traffic here yet.  What a difference from the Bay area.  Confirmed what I have thought my whole life…people are just more friendly from here North.  It’s more laid back, people take time to smile at one another, say hi, and talk to one another.  It will take me a month or more before I get used to it. In some ways, I hope I never do.  I want to remember what it was like to not have time to make a new friend so that I will constantly reach out to meet new people.

Even the air seems different.  Things feel suspended..not sure if it is just me in that in-between state of not being fully moved here yet with my family back in San Jose or the changing of the winter season.

Starting to get back to work on a few tunes.  I have a few ideas I would like some input on.  Should I start on new material first OR finish up on a few songs that are half-way done? Either way, Music is coming! Let me know, I would like to hear from you.

Played some tunes with John!

This last Sunday, I starting collaborating with John Armour, a musician I met at the Bosch Baha’i Music weekend.
