Kevin Bresnahan Posted August 30 Posted August 30 I was out walking the dog the other day as the sun set and sat down to this beautiful view as a local cover band played an outdoor concert behind me. They were doing Joe Cocker's version of "Feelin' Alright". It fit the mood. Quote

Coda Posted October 3 Posted October 3 The blue note bent but did not break. It carried sorrow the way a river carries moonlight: moving, shining, still dark. - Miles Gray Quote
Coda Posted October 5 Posted October 5 (edited) You Go to My Head By Carole Boston Weatherford I sang my songs so much that they became the soundtrack for my dreams, the melody of my moods, a room I lived in, and a balm for my wounds. I sang my songs enough to know them backward and forward, enough to wonder if they could lift me from hometown haunts to center stage. I’d sung my songs enough to think I could take on Baltimore’s best talent at the Harlem Theatre Amateur Hour and maybe even win. If you sing a song enough, it can go to your head that way. This belongs with the post above Edited October 5 by Coda sorry, my image won't post and I cannot delete. Quote

Kevin Bresnahan Posted October 11 Posted October 11 i just left Barcelona on a cruise ship. Our hotel in Barcelona was the Sercotel Rosellón, which has a rooftop bistro with this beautiful view of the Sagrada Família. My iPhone 16 Pro takes very good pictures, even in low light. Quote
