breakfast coffee setup in restaurant

What a pretty coffee and breakfast setup. I’m back at the Honduran Salvadoran restaurant in Charlotte that’s open for breakfast. Got my order in.

Recital Time

It’s been quite a few years since I’ve done a recital. This past spring I made the commitment to put together a recital for the end of summer. It was originally schedule August 13th, but I got the dreaded Covid 4 days before. Now the rescheduled date of October 8th is fast approaching. This is […]

Recital Time

such luxury lodging

It’s the stunning view from my hotel room. It’s not bad, actually. I like that there are not many people here.

chilaquiles and coffee

Chilaquiles and coffee for breakfast in Charlotte. It will be the highlight of my week, maybe the whole month.

OMG, this plate is insane!

church basement

For a moment, I was down in the basement of the church where I visited today for music reasons. I found a pool table, ping-pong, foosball, and a nearby refrigerator for my beer!

me? in church?

I have sneaked into the Presbyterian sanctuary for the pre-service warmup and service.

They have real Bibles in here and everything. 😆

Organ sounding good. So far I have not burst into flames. 😂

My spouse is playing clarinet here today.

The deli case there was exquisite this morning. Set me up nicely for lunch on the road. 🥗🥪

starz ‘n barz

Damn. It wouldn’t unfurl for the picture.

It’s on US-29 at Blairs, Virginia, in case you feel the need to come out and sit with it.

sweet tea

When I eat at places where I can fill my own iced tea, I fill it all the way up with unsweet and put one splash of sweet on top.

That one little splash of sweet makes the entire tea almost too sweet to drink. I can’t imagine filling it up with all sweet. My pancreas would probably jump out of my body.
