IT'S AUGUST & LIFE IS GOOD HERE IN THE MOUNTAINS




Yep, the weather has been cooperating this summer... mellow days, cool evenings ( 40 degrees here this A.M. )... lots of rainy evenings too... very few forest fires, ( knock on wood )..


I got a call from The Canon Rose Acoustic Society last night.. they want me to open for the first show of the fall season this year...Always a great audience.. they listen to every word... and they love the oldies ! I've been working on a slow version of Buddy Hollies "Every Day".. I like it.. kinda makes it more "folky".. and a faster verson of "Detroit City".. which suits my voice better.


Sharon & I are going to town today... supplies, etc... might catch a movie, might take a drive up towards Cripple Creek first... check out the views... I also need to get another mike & stand at Guitar Center, ( want to mike my amp, for the Washburn G-3 and put the sound through the P.A. system).. gives me more options for a mellow sound....
Gonna hit the shower... bye for now... oh, yes.. the photos first is another sunset from our deck the second is a shot from up near Cripple Creek earlier this year.
Love to all,
Ric
