Photo Adventure No.33: Let's Bake Cookies!

Today I finally came to grips with the fact that a chair from my Grandparents basement was too expensive to repair and needed to be sent to it's final resting place. It served the family well for nearly 50 years. They don't make 'em like they used to. Since my Grandfather was a baker I decided to bake some lemon sugar cookies as a peace offering to the spirit of my Grandparents. PIX

Musical Interlude No.05: Dark Star Orchestra

Since the death of Jerry Garcia in 1995 I have regretted not getting to Hamilton in `94 to see The Grateful Dead. A hard lesson was learned and I have not missed the opportunity to see my favourite artists again. I passed on seeing Dark Star Orchestra the first time they came to Toronto, blowing it off as just another cover band. Heck, I`ve seen The Dead, Phil Lesh & Friends and Ratdog which have former Grateful Dead members and nothing has ever compared to the real deal. My friends convinced me to take a chance on the recent DSO show and I was amazingly surprised to my delight. Consider me on the bus. PIX
