It’s funny – the things we complain about.
2 days ago I was complaining about Facebook, yet it’s
been Facebook that has brought me in touch with some
of those who are my dearest friends and loved ones.
Found myself grumbling the other day now that I finally got
the Datsun running & on the road, and here comes the rain.… —-> Continue…

Play For Me… YOU

In-Between-the-Chords-of-Your-Life-MAINx500x350-2

It’s called my wallet.  Rather than cash,
