Taking you Somewhere….
I love music, I listen to almost anything from classical to heavy rock. I have been to many concerts from Andrea Bocelli to ADCD but music to me is a way to take me away with out going anywhere and remind me where I have been or where I am going. I plan theme songs for when I travel, and every morning in the trip I listed to the same song and what is great about this little thing I do is for the rest of my life whenever I hear that song it brings me back to the trip, that moment, I think you should try it. I wish I was musical but I have not been blessed to sings or the coordination to can play any instruments but I wish I could. I would love to be one of those people who goes on stage in those open mic nights a sing my song and watch the faces I impact. Music can make or break my mood or sooth a wound and I hope it does the same for you.

The art of beer....
The art of beer…..
I am writing this not to make myself seem like an alcoholic which I am not (they go to meetings lol) but I think there is an art to beer. I look for a few things that I believe make up the art of beer and it not hops, color or all that crap it is two very important things. One it s flavor some beers just taste like crap in my opinion (for me it is the ones that have flavors and that have fruit in them) the other is the beer needs to take me some where. Not like a mind altering drug but to a happy place where maybe I am sitting on a hammock listening to the ocean. You may all think I am nuts but those who truly enjoy ‘the beer” understand what I am saying. Beer has become more then a beverage for me it is life style. I plan trips around it (some of reading this may have been on one with me) it reminds me off a place that I have been a way to identify with it. For example, when I was in Prague a few years ago I saw many monuments and was in the Jewish Quarter but if someone asks me about my time there my first point of reference is the beer (Original Budweiser, Pilsner Urquel which is amazing) that is what I talk about and I can remember what I was doing the moment I had one. So for me drinking a beer has become a part of the way I remember things, the moments that make up my life.
