UPDATE – I’ve noticed that when I am busy doing stuff I don’t have time to write about doing stuff. I do apologize for that. I try to keep you up to date on my activities. I want you to know about all my adventures… before it hits the news and social media.

BIG NEWS: The Artist & the Astronaut DVD will be released in a few weeks and the Soundtrack album is also on its way. It will hit in September. Yes, I will keep you posted and let you know where to get them.

Last night, Brett, Letizia, and I joined Gary Lucas for a private gig. It was a blast. But, I gotta tell ya, I’m a little rusty. I have to get out more.

I’m in Texas until next week when I expect to be in Virginia. But I know I will be back in Central New York on Monday, Aug 19th. It is a fundraiser for my Stroke support group, Triumph Over Stroke. It’s FREE. Harvey’s Garden is a pub in Syracuse, NY. On Monday nights they donate their proceeds to non-profit organizations. PLEASE join us. Here’s a link to the POSTER and information: The BrainWave Summer Bash

I plan on posting here and on social media about this trip to Galveston and Houston.

Although busy, we have taken long walks around our Certified Wildlife Habitat. Joann has an app from Cornell that will identify birds by their calls. We’ve identified some rare and beautiful birds. We have a Barred Owl very nearby. We also caught a glimpse of a Scarlet Tanager, which is very rare. We never saw or heard a Bullfinch, but I gotta tell you, The Bullfinch Pub has a Master Brewer, and he’s making another batch of his peanut butter stout that is to die for.

These sketches came out of my journal. I hope you enjoy them.

One more thing. Last Sunday Joann arranged to have 5 of my 7 children and 9 of my 10 grandchildren out at the lakehouse. I am still on cloud nine. Yup. 75 has been good so far.
