The Weepies

I have a new favorite band: The Weepies. Deb Talan (formerly of hummingfish I believe) and Steve Tannen (also a song writer in his own right) have this great love story of uniting through their music...and now they have a 1 year old baby and a few top hit CDs.

Here are a few YouTube Videos of songs by The Weepies that I'm in love with right now:

* The Weepies - Somebody Loved

* The Weepies - World Spins Madly On

* The Weepies - Can't Go Back Now

* The Weepies - Gotta Have You

* The Weepies - Nobody Knows Me At All

Watch the videos. Hear the lyrics. I love it!

On Waking

Today I woke knowing that the morning was over in Vieques Puerto Rico. Sunrise watched, bikes ridden, and water swum. We live as anchors at the center of our universe, while others do the same. Moving like soapy bubbles bouncing off each other: brilliant in color, drifting, moving, dancing, exploring....and on occasion joining.

Here are a few of my favorite photos from my travels in Puerto Rico - first for work associated with the NAPCRG conference and then with Jill:





Funny how blogging is more than writing. It is also an opportunity to create yourself and to present yourself to the world. It's funny...today this blog post isn't for me (which is the first time that's happened). If you go to Vieques, Puerto Rico be sure to rent bikes and book a trip through Vieques adventures - the owner Garry has the inside scoop on all the island secrets!
