HMMMM.....WHAT'S HE GOT UP HIS SLEEVE NOW ? ? ?

Cellular Primal Energies ReAwaken

ONE week from today, SIXTEEN years ago, September 3, 1993, on the most profound cellular level I understood my connection to the deepest part of my primal nature . . . . . . I gave birth.



Back then, those blissful earliest minutes, hours, day, days, week, weeks I often felt an unshakable sense of knowing––what my beating heart, "where there's now one there will be two,"would need of me.
Keenly intuitive to this new soft breath, hushed murmurs at the breast, night feeding squeaks in our family bed. One rip-my-heart-from-my-chest-whimper turned tear-streaked face cry set my ear closer to this tiny body...listening, deeply listening for distinction.

Even learning his would-be foreign language we seemed to communicate with undeniable TRUST. As close and connected as time did grace us, even bridging the language barrier until we were fluent, damn if there weren't countless times over the years when I became debilitated by fear that I was losing ground. I didn't feel prepared or confident that I knew or would know what he needed as he grew more and more independent–––I was lacking that earlier and undeniable primal TRUST.

After a long night of insomnia and sharing countless memories with my pillow I am confident I, still more often than not, don't have a fucking clue what's going to become of what comes next . . .BUT,

With grace and guidance from that once seven pound, seven ounce flesh and wonder, what I learned in my unshakable primal heart is that TRUSTING HIM has always been the key.


. . . and sleep will come to this mother's "where there's now one there will be two"––HEARTS

When It Seems Nobody Is Hiring...Grab Your Thick Skin And Get On Downtown

After Jake & Wes's previous successful musical payouts on a downtown corner,
Wes, Pender, and John decided to pan their compassionate, humanitarian sides.

Feeling a bit blue today? Want to get something off your chest?

We'll stand here and take your verbal abuse, you'll feel better, and possibly we'll earn a days pay as donations are appreciated.


These guys have my admiration, some of my money...but mostly THEY'VE GOT MOXIE !!!

One Might Say I've Grown Rather Fond of Wes's Nikon Digital

Oh yes I did . . .


An evening, water side view of our home using a camera setting I know nothing about, but gives a cool blue effect. . .


The moon hugs the dead one . . .


Another night rises . . .


Hot Nightlight . . .


Friendship, s'mores, and music––what more could our deck hope for?

. . . OK, truthfully, a good stain job and some nail pounding!

A shot of Main Street which I really like for some reason . . .


Two musicians who work the corner of High & Main . . .


My just about to turn 16-year-old son being his awesomeness . . .


A flower I MUST have in my garden next year because it is amazingly cool . . .


Steve'O who must return to our deck summer after summer to perform his belly laugh that instantly becomes contagious to any adult within ear-shot . . .


Wes swims in the biggest pool we've ever not owned . . .


Our favorite place when we're not at home or on a friends boat, THREE TIDES...Best Brew, Best Oysters, Best Staff, Best of the Best Owners, and when we're hunting down all our Best Friends, we find them here Tuesday––Sunday . . .
