Our house was in the midst of a remodel and the kitchen had been demolished. [...]
Here, in the City of Angels I always feel blessed to be with my children and friends. It’s Saturday and my daughter and future son-in -law are house hunting. While they’re busy I contemplate music streaming through my head. I reflect on my Shindig days when my musical family and I broadcasted good vibrations all [...]
Today I am leaving my beautiful island and heading for the west coast to be with my beautiful daughter, Kt and her puppy, Lola. Also, my husband, Jered is joining me for a few days. We will be visiting one of his friends, PF Sloan who wrote Secret Agent Man.
