We had our annual Xmas tree ornament-making party, and boy oh boy did our friends deliver this year! Here's a creepy christmas poem, music and words by Russell, and read by a friend.

On the Road in October

Russell, Corser, and I took a roadtrip from October 27 through November 2 up the Pacific Northwest to visit his parents in Walla Walla, Washington. The route took us through Bend, Oregon, then Walla Walla, WA, then off to Portland, OR for a few days, then back down through Ashland, OR to California.

Ramping it up

Russell's birthday brunch at The Ramp

Birthday show in Berkeley

Our friends from Ukulele Underground Aldrine Guerrero, Ryan Esaki, and Aaron Nakamura were in the Bay Area to play a show on September 24th, the day before Russell's birthday. Russell was also one of the opening acts, and he recruited his pal Grumpy Coyote to join him onstage for a few songs. What a great birthday gift!




Aldrine puts on an amazing show. Thanks for the opportunity, Aldy!

Bobby & Gracie!

Perpetual bachelor Bob finally got married! He & his girl Grace are such the happy couple. Congratulations you two!
