Road Trip...Last minute is better than nothin!

     Since most of you aren't on my Face Book page and don't know my history...I will give you the Reader's Digest condensed version. I grew up in a musical house, my Dad always had jam sessions at our house, my Mom played piano, I played piano and sang harmony for my Dad from a VERY young age. So I grew to appreciate all different kinds of musical genres. I mainly like Country now though. But not the Bubble-Gum variety of late. I prefer the more traditional, even into rock-a-billy and Alternative Country. I have lots of friends now in the business and travel around to see them when I can.

     A #1 pick for the past 10 years of so is a guy by the name of Eric Heatherly. (Eric's FB page) He is a mix of Country/Rock-A-Billy/Blues all rolled into one of best guitar pickers I have ever heard! And he is a wonderful person too, so that doesn't hurt! We have gotten to be friends over the years and I promote him whenever I can and when he gets out here on the West Coast, my best girl friend and I always get there!!
     Well, now onto my latest road trip. About a week ago Eric sent me a message telling me to keep the 14th open as he had an early birthday surprise for me. Well stupid ME, I thought he was doing a web cast from some show! Come to find out, he had managed to book a show in Southern California for US!!! It is at this divey little tavern in Laguna Beach..RIGHT on the beach...so needless to say I am getting my fanny down there! I am going to have to leave my house up in Tuolumne, CA about 5am to get to the hotel in Laguna Beach by about 3-4ish. LONG drive on my poor sore body, but will be so worth it! We will get to all hang out, go to dinner, then to the show. Then Friday & Saturday we are going to go sight-see at the beach, catch up and visit, and just have a relaxing day. I am gonna plan to stay till Sunday, my birthday, and drive home to hopefully make it to have a family dinner Sunday night. THAT part may be waiting till the next weekend. After that drive back, I may be headed straight for bed!
     So I got both my classes homework done for two weeks in a week so I can relax and enjoy my time away! I hope you all have a wonderful week and weekend!
Love to all!
