Our long time friend, Al, passed away a couple months ago. The time was right, last Sunday, to have a celebration/service/memorial, for him. Good words. Good tunes, in a way to honor, and remember him…
We played a tune, that we’ve done a hundred times before, mostly, with our amazing friend, Mike August ( check out his Youtube page ) . By Your Side… By the Everybody Fields… It’s what we wish we were, with our friend, Al… By his side…
So, I have an old person compulsion to make our back yard calm, peaceful and enjoyable. However, I MAY have gone too far, with the mood lighting…
Please join us on Saturday, along with special guest, Mike August, From Harpos Chatterbox Cafe’ on Youtube, for some fun!
