Rainbohhhhh, Rainbohhhhh!
There’s truth in rainbows.
A double rainbow deserves a double blog title. Welcome to my backdrop on a ferry ride at sunset last week, coming from Anacortes back to Friday Harbor. I’ve never before seen both ends of a rainbow at once, and I wish that I had the ability to show you the entire expanse of arc and magic, lifting and sinking from the sea like a colorful slinky toy. I hope this brightens your Monday.
My corporeal being will be off the island for a few days, surrounded by concrete and steel and some wonderful professional interactions. But my spirit remains here and intends to create some blog posts to remind her of why she always looks forward to returning to interact with this. Stay tuned for a few more favorite pix from my most recent adventures!

Yes, there is truth in rainbows, light doesn’t lie–it just illuminates. How lucky for you to be at sea with the wide expanse of horizon so as to check out both ends of the rainbow. There must be some kind of Irish fable that would let you know how fortunate you were to see it like that. And there was truth in your music, TELL MYSELF THE TRUTH @2:12. Those vocals zing and swing and touch us, sounding like you oh so very much, making us impatient to hear more of your vocal work, that like your compositions, a part of them of course, will be rock/jazz/country/classical. You bend music like a prism bends light, flooding us from every direction. No one can pin you down, weigh you down with only one form. There are fireworks in your lines, and the music washes over us like spring rain in a dry month in Texas; oh so refreshing.
Your concert at UPS sounds terrific, but the damned universe is a tricky thing. I have been elected the Director of the Tacoma Film Club this year, and we have an event on that night running from 6pm to 10pm. So even though we will be only five miles apart from each other, never the two shall meet. Sorry about that. Keeps an air of mystery though.
