2010 Highlights
Orlando!
The girls went to Disney and Universal with Bob & Joyce. This is the Harry Potter Hogwarts school in Universal.
Halloween
Kristen carved her own pumpkin this year.
Black Crowes
Black Crowes at the Basie in October. Good 8th row seats but everyone stood for the whole show and cameras were banned. And my audio didn't come out. But a good band for this venue nonetheless.
Utah!
Photos now online!
We're back from our trip to see the National (and other) Parks of Southern Utah. The photos are now online. We saw Grand Canyon North Rim, Zion, Bryce, Cedar Breaks, Capitol Reef, Arches, Canyonlands, Mesa Verde, Monument Valley, and more. Check out the photos and diary.

Girls at STOMP!
In early October Jill, Kristen and Joyce went to lunch, the Union Square Greenmarket, McSorley's Old Ale House and the off-Broadway STOMP! in Manhattan.
Jackson Browne / David Lindley
In September we saw Jackson Browne and David Lindley at the MEC at Monmouth University. Very nice new facility but way too big for a concert at over 4000 seats. A real hassle. Plus the camera died and we were not in a good position for audio recording... so here's a stock photo.
RIP Cookie
In September we lost Cookie, one of our 2 guinea pigs.
Asbury Park Band
Kristen played with the adults in the Asbury Park Band, in Asbury Park and Belmar.
Irish Tenors
Jill loves those Irish Tenors and she had a great time with Christie. Again.
End of an Era
We sold Kristen's old playset. She was bummed, but she hadn't used it for about 2 years. Same for the basketball hoop.
Ettiene's Wedding
We and the rest of the family had a great time at Ettiene's wedding.
1982 Road Trip Diary Online
I recently rediscovered my diary from my 50 day cross country road trip that I took in 1982. No photos, but maybe you'll like the text!
God Bless Apple Computer
God Bless Apple Comptuer. Now to solve this Greek Debt crisis...
Joe Bonamassa
Joe Bonamassa at the Basie in the front row!
Alejandro Escovedo
An amazing show at The Studio on April 11th.
Girls in Florida
Experience Hendrix
On March 25 Jill and Dave went to see Experience Hendrix at the Basie from the front row. Nice photos on the web page.
Cherryholmes
Also in March, Jill and Christie went to see the Bluegrass family band Cherryholmes as the final part of the Winwood settlement. Dave and Bob drank Scotch at home.
Irish Tenors
Jill loves those Tenors and went to see their show again, with Kristen, as part of the Winwood deal, on 3/6.
The Spensers
On March 5th, the girls went to see The Spensers Theater of Illusion, as part of the Winwood compensation. (Despite a blizzard, the Count Basie could not cancel the Steve Winwood show, so they gave tickets to other (lesser) events as compensation.)
More Frickin' Snow
Enough already!
Hairspray
In January, Jill took Kristen to see the traveling version of Hairspray at the Basie and they loved it.
Noni & Sieb Visit
We visited Noni & Sieb in North Carolina.
