We married 1998. Sara married in Florence,Italy'97,BA, Pepperdine,'02. James rides motocross in Iowa. Footnote: 2 yr. involvement in 12 step program for Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA) brought 40 years of emotional carnage and mental barriers to a close. It changed my life and brought me peace, clarity and a deeper understanding of all that is around me. Wished I'd found it much earlier but things come to us when they're supposed to. If you can identify with these remarks I urge you contact me. PEACE!

Just a few nights before I was evac'd from Katrina, I met "Stony B (on guitar) and Grampa" (sic) playing their "French Quarter Style" on Royal St., New Orleans, 8/05. Hard to believe that was almost 10 years ago. In 2007 I
Is it TBT already? This would be a portrait of me (about 1972) by a dear friend, Anne Phillips, Chouinard Art Inst. grad and first wave participant in L.A.'s Woman's Building. She also wrote the art reviews in Palm Springs
Been getting to the know the regulars at Alta Coffee's open mic nights. I'm the one singing songs to college kids who's parents were probably too young to have heard.
