Afternoon Delight: the varying meanings throughout the years My mom loved to listen to music. Sundays were a day for us performing her favorite tunes. I was so embedded in her musical world that I barely knew of the popular music of my time. I knew Elvis and […]
When I lived down in Battery Park (near Ground Zero in Manhattan) I used to crazily walk to work everyday whether there was sleet, snow or heavy shine. That walk would approximately take 40 minutes on a good day. If there was high wind, then it may have […]
Born to Run and Surf on the Sunset Daily Prompt: Machine Bruce Springsteen said it best when he sang Born to Run: h-Oh, Someday girl I don’t know when we’re gonna get to that place Where we really wanna go and we’ll walk in the sun But till […]
