life is good

highlights from my weekend:


Seeing my favorite local ska bands (Monkey, Uptones) on Friday night at a great club, and folks in the bands knowing my name and being happy to see me.

Skating, in my late 40s, until just before sunset on Sunday evening in a remarkable setting at San Jose's great new park with my music selection playing.  Getting rolls for $3 from a busy Vietnamese shop where I am the only Caucasian customer.  Picking up a couple beers on the way home.  Drinking and eating in the backyard.  

What could be better?  Well, my wife and son could be home to enjoy it with me, but one must soldier on...










photos should be up on flickr soon...

and in closing, lyrics from New Jersey punk rockers THE BOUNCING SOULS (Better Things- Gold Record CD)

It's really good to see you rocking out and having fun
Living like you've just begun
Accepting life and what it brings


ciao,

Miles
