On Music: Melodies to Chase Away the Dreaded Mid-July Blues
Late Morning, Wednesday, July 12, 2023, Lithia, Florida Hi, there. I’m off to a later-than-usual start on this hot (88°F/31°C) summer day in the Tampa Bay area. I slept OK, I guess, but I haven’t felt like writing anything (not for the blog, not for the manuscript) till just now. I’m still tired, stressed, and,…

On Music – Songs, Instrumental Pieces, and Themes For a Hot June Sunday in Florida
I still (as of this writing) have not chosen a “fun activity” to enjoy on this hot, humid, and unexciting Sunday afternoon, so I figured I’d use the time to be somewhat creative and do one of those “YouTube Music Video” blog posts I sometimes share on this space. There’s no rhyme or reason to…

Musings & Thoughts for Saturday, May 27, 2023, or: Weekend Update, Part the First
Hi, there. It’s late morning in Lithia, Florida, on Saturday, May 27, 2023. It’s a nice late spring morning here; sunny, cool (it’s only 72°F/22°C) and the skies overhead are clear.
