Friday 11- I did my stretches.
Today’s Weather was: Temps of around 61 and 83 degrees, winds from the NW at 11 to 26 with gusts up to 45 MPH, humidity around 17 percent, clear skies but cloudy in the evening.
According to the National Weather Service: “Saturday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 82. North wind 17 to 20 mph decreasing to between 7 and 10 mph. Winds could gust as high as 26 mph. Saturday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 61. Calm wind becoming northwest between 8 and 11 mph.”
I updated the Copper Mountain Mesa Website and sent out the Newsletter.
I headed down to Joshua Tree to say goodbye to Stan and Jan who are retiring from their haircutting business Stan and Jan’s Hairstyling. Stan has been cutting my hair (or what’s left of it) for around five years or so. They started their business in Joshua Tree in 1997 at what used to be called Isadora’s, a beauty salon, and moved across the street to their present little shop in November 2000. Folks came in throughout the day saying their goodbyes, bringing and eating food from a potluck table setup inside. Stan says he’s been cutting hair since 1963 and my hair was one of the last he’d cut. I will miss our conversations of world politics while getting my hair trimmed. Goodbye Stan and Jan! Have a wonderful retirement!
I stopped off at Roger Smith’s to take some pictures of his garden that he is going to write about and post on Copper Mountain Mesa Website.
I watched a couple of episodes of “Kyle XY”; dang I love that show!
I tried to record a few more songs but find that I get nervous and screw it up; I have a hard time singing. But I did manage to get a new song I’m working on recorded. Now I have to figure out a way to get it on the web so others can hear it. When I do I’ll have it as a separate post.
I did my stretches, practiced my guitar, wrote to my journal, posted it to the web, and called it a night.
