Summer Dreamin'

Since I'm now home I've decided to learn how to blog. (Summer Goal #21) Yaaaaaaaaay!!!
You'll have to be patient with me because I am learning. I'll post my summer adventures here complete with random thoughts, musical discoveries, photos and what goals I've completed.

To start: MUSICAL DISCOVERY!!!
I was fortunate enough to spend the weekend with Matt H. and he showed me a remarkable opera his friend (Ryan H.) wrote and produced. I've spent the morning listening to the CD over and over again. (Deep Love Opera) I suppose I'll contribute to the cause and actually buy the CD instead of just listen to it on the site. I would just like to say that I am floored. The acoustics are great and how the "folk" genre is incorporated is stunning. I strongly suggest everyone go buy the CD and let your ears taste the delicious story that is portrayed.

Special thanks to Matt H. for introducing me to Deep Love.
