Everyday A Dream – Menahan Street Band

Everyday A Dream – Menahan Street Band

I’m really liking the Menahan Street Band. I think I’m going to get The Crossing. I think Daptone Records has something going on because I like Lee Fields, The Budos Band, and Charles Bradley too.

#MusicMonday  

Say Happy Birthday to Dede if you haven’t already.

Roam – B-52’s

Roam – B-52’s

My Roman concrete and bee posts made me think of the B-52’s Roam for #MusicMonday. Also, Tiffany Henry and Andy Bohm are roaming around Europe. Have fun roaming guys.

When in Rome, build something concrete

Honey bee boo boo?

I hear a wind, whistlin’ air

Whisperin’ in my ear

Boy mercury shootin’ through every degree

Oh girl dancin’ down those dirty and dusty trails

Take it hip to hip rockin’ through the wilderness

Around the world the trip begins with a kiss

Roam if you want to, roam around the world

Roam if you want to without wings, without wheels

Roam if you want to, roam around the world

Roam if you want to without anything but the love we feel

Skip the air-strip to the sunset

Yeah ride the arrow to the target

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Around the world the trip begins with a kiss

Roam if you want to roam around the world

Roam if you want to without wings, without wheels

Roam if you want to roam around the world

Roam if you want to without anything but the love we feel

Fly the great big sky, see the great big sea

Kick through continents, bustin’ boundaries

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Around the world the trip begins with a kiss

Roam if you want to roam around the world

Roam if you want to without wings, without wheels

Roam if you want to roam around the world

Roam if you want to without anything but the love we feel

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Take it hip to hip, rock it through the wilderness

Vehicle – Ides of March

Vehicle – Ides of March

My Roman concrete post made me think of this for #MusicMonday.

When in Rome, build something concrete

Hey well, I’m the friendly stranger in the black sedan

Won’t you hop inside my car

I got pictures, got candy, I’m a lovable man

And I can take you to the nearest star

I’m your vehicle, baby

I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go

I’m your vehicle, woman

But now I’m sure you know

That I love ya

(Love ya)

I need ya

(Need ya)

I want ya

Got to have you child

Great God in Heaven you know I love you

Well, if you wants to be a movie star

I’ll get a ticket to a Hollywood

But if you wanna stay just luck you are

You know I think you really should

I’m your vehicle, baby

I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go

I’m your vehicle, woman

But now I’m sure you know

That I love ya

(Love ya)

I need ya

(Need ya)

I want ya

Got to have you child

Great God in Heaven you know I love you

Oh, you know I do

Well, I’m the friendly stranger in the black sedan

Won’t you hop inside my car

I got pictures, candy, I’m a lovable man

And I can take you to the nearest star

I’m your vehicle, baby

I’ll take you anywhere you wanna go

I’m your vehicle, woman

But now I’m sure you know

That I love ya

(Love ya)

I need ya

(Need ya)

I want ya

Great God in Heaven you know I love you

And I’m your vehicle, babe

You know, I love ya, I need ya, I want ya

Got to have you child

Great God in Heaven you know I love you

Bruneau Dunes – To tame a land

Bruneau Dunes – To tame a land

I had an awesome time camping with Gnotic Pasta,  Mary Owens, and company, at Bruneau Dunes State Park, just outside of Boise, Idaho. The dunes are deceptive. A few meters from the top, the grade changes pretty dramatically. It was worth the effort. The Bruneau canyon was spectacular too. I can’t wait to go back to go camping in the mountains. We lucked out and the clouds cleared so we could see the Whirlpool Galaxy, Messier 51

I mentioned Virtual Star Party to Greg, one of the telescope operators there. It would be awesome if he follows up with Scott Lewis or Fraser Cain so everyone can check out the skies without light pollution.

Dominican Republic 2013

Dominican Republic 2013

It’s good to be home and back in the swing of things. Some of these pictures were posted already. Here are more vacation pictures.

There are 6 pictures of a humming bird near the end. If you miss it, you probably are wondering what goof would take a picture of a bush.
