This Tuesday my husband informed me that we were accompanying one of his friends
at an open mic in Cotuit that evening! He forgot to write down the date and we hadn't
practiced the music, and I would not be free until 4:30 that afternoon! Needless to say,
I was a bit stressed out! However, I held my temper and we pulled it together. We practiced a few times at home and arrived an hour early. We were able to set up and get a glass of wine at the performance center. Things were looking up! Frank's friend Don arrived in full Elvis regalia including the black wig and sunglasses! We practiced
"Hound Dog" and "Heartbreak Hotel", and we were the second act to go on. The audience loved it and everything went well! We listened to a few other performers and left at 8:30. It was fun to be up and about on a summer evening! We hadn't had dinner, so we opted for Chinese take out which was perfect! We were having a date on a week night! My point here is to enjoy each other and do what makes you happy together. My husband and I met many years ago and connected through our music. We both play guitar and sing and we love it! Do what makes you happy and you will make others happy too. Sound like a song doesn't it?

ANGELS ALL AROUND US!!!
Anyone who doesn't believe in angels should try driving around the cape and you'll believe in them pretty quickly! This weekend an enormous amount of people descended upon us. We tried to get into one of our favorite pubs and it was just packed. Just driving less than a mile took twice as long! Oh well, it is summer time and the weather is just gorgeous. So have fun and don't forget your sunscreen!
Also,don't forget to exercise. Take a walk or ride your bike. I took a nice walk on the bike trail and walked as fast as I could. Then, I did some sideways running. It's really more like jogging and it gets my heart rate up. I did a mile and a half in 30 minutes which is a good rate for me. Yesterday, we played music at Epoch of Brewster which was lots of fun, and we got plenty of exercise hauling the equipment.
Today I did 4 miles on the bike. Enjoy the weather and have a great week!
