Not Fade Away

Driftin' & Dreamin' and Driftin Some More, RIP Dan Hicks

I seriously love swing music, and Dan Hicks was one of my favorite musicians. I planned to see him perform many times, but it never actually happened I'm sad to say. Needless to say, his song, Driftin' was one of my favorites, although it is one of his more serious songs, not of the more humorous variety. Still, can't you see yourself dancing with your sweetheart to this lovely song?! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYsfAapr9LE

Driftin' and Dreamin' and My Kids

I am out of practice with this photo blog, but here is photo Tony took of the four (adult!) kids with his phone before Christmas before our little fire place. I think they are awesome!

Driftin' & Dreamin' and The Alien Grasshopper

Cristina took these photos of a huge grasshopper on the outside of our sliding window. I told her that the grasshopper face looks like an alien to me.

Driftin' & Dreamin' and The Last Nestling

Our nestling was "home alone", but he would flap his wings in response to chirping from Mama & Papa. Next thing I knew, he was gone.
