A WHOLE LOT OF NOTHING & SOME WESTERN BLUES

IT WAS A FROSTY START TO THE MORNING

By the time we stuck our heads out of the chilly motorhome this morning, the clouds were gone & the sun was beginning to make it's daily appearance over the eastern horizon. Heavy frost again so I think it's time to start thinking about heading over to Arizona soon for some higher temps & lower altitudes.

SOME WORKERS DOING REPAIRS ON A WALL NEAR US THIS AFTERNOON

Not a whole lot to put in the blog to-day because we just kind of ended up doing the square root of totally nothing. Kelly went into town in the morning for some browsing while I just kind of puttered around with some motorhome chores. Windows to be cleaned, dogs to be played with & sunshine to be soaked up. Updated some programs on the computer because it's better to do that while we have a free internet connection & not using up our Verizon bytes while out boondocking later. HEY, WAS THAT A CAMERA SHUTTER I HEARD


Boy, have they ever got a great radio station in this area. I gave up on commercial radio about 3 years ago when I got fed up with the ram jam announcers, hokey local commercials, phony happy gang morning shows, gross immature stupidity, moaning & whining be-bop little girl singers with absolutely no talent, & repetitive music....over & over & over. Switched to Satellite radio & love it. My music of choice now is ambient/new age. Sirius channel 073. Haven't listened to much of anything else ever since, until a few days ago.............


Earlier this week while staying at City of Rocks State Park we headed out in the car one day heading for Silver City. Kelly turned on the radio, hit the seek button, & we stumbled headlong into a pile of toe stompin, foot bangin, bluesy western music at 105.5 on the dial. KSIL High Lonesome.... http://www.ksilradio.com/about.php This station immediately caught my attention. The fact that it is practically commercial free & without some ego infested jabbering DJ goes a long ways in my book. This station has a western flavor that is totally refreshing because it's not all the over & over standard glitzy western pop singers of to-day's age. I have never heard any of these songs before & haven't a clue who even sings them but what a treat to hear music I haven't heard ten thousand dozen times before. Bravo for this station not going with the old standard fare & format. Thank-you 105.5 for re-kindling my interest in this dusty old western music with a generous smattering of good old blues mushed right into the very sagebrush songs themselves:)) Refreshing!!

Decided to give the cameras a day off so only took a few pics around the campsite. I'll put them in the blog instead of starting a new photo album.

And, did you know..."the only thing better than right now will someday be the memories of right now." And, that's an original by myself..................... :))
