Ruskie Mountain High


After his death, producer Roger Nichols released a 2-CD set of previously unreleased recordings of Denver's 1985 concert performances in the Soviet Union called John Denver – Live in the USSR.  This beautiful version of Annie's Song is in English and Russian.  

Enjoy !

Pandora's Box




A great app for the Verizon Samsung Galaxy 4 is Pandora.  I know, I know..... I really need to upgrade my phone but hey!  it works and I like it.  Problem solved.

Aaaand, I've discovered a neat thing about my car - it's bluetooth!  So now I can listen to my playlists all the time!

"Quit that or you'll get stuck that way"

Has that ever been true?  Have you ever made a face at someone and your face got stuck that way?  Why do we say that to our kids?  I'm not 100% sure I've said it to my kids but I know mama said it to me.  I was just telling a friend that I keep rolling my eyes into the back of my head when I talk about politics (school district all the way up to presidential) and every time I do it I think of my mama saying "quit that or you'll get stuck that way". 

So, if by chance I'm not on here for a long stretch between now and elections, know that I'm in the hospital with my physician standing over me and telling my family "I'm sorry, we did all we could.  Her eyes are stuck like that, in the back of her head.  If only she'd have listened to her mother, she'd have had a chance."
