First of all thank you for all the warmest birthday wishes!!Like I always say after 30 it’s a Birthday Month we celebrate so lets get to it!!!
Man I had a great weekend! First I did a cool gig way up in Roscoe N.Y. with 2 of my good friends Michele and Ron,(thanks for havin me guys!). Then I had a “family barbecue” on Sunday and I got a chance to see my cousins that I grew up with and it just filled my heart! Oh and by way I made some SAUCE baby!! WHEW!! It was so good , my cousins were floating around Belmont Park speaking fluent Italian that was channeled thru the spirit of the tomatoes that our ancestors grew while singing love songs that can only be inspired by the tomatoes, Onion and garlic!! Oh and of course we cooked sausage on the grill and then drop it in the sauce and this just made it better!!! I’m tellin ya we had a great time and I can’t wait to reconnect with these people! They are the cornerstones of my youth and stayin connected keeps me grounded and somehow safe! But enough of that to the schedule we go!
