Meadow, a Senagal parrot, lived here for a short while. She was too wild or we were too inept at bird ownership. Luckily, we found her a new home. Did you know parrots can live as long as humans? I like to think Meadow is still alive somewhere, hopefully happier. Jessi was our first family …
For the last 30 years, Beth and I have been pursuing a career as children’s musicians. Here in the New York area, we’re well-known as Teaching Artists, folks who come to schools, libraries and summer camps to sing fun songs and, more importantly, share music on themes relevant to the academic and social-emotional curriculums. (That …

Beth and I took a ride to Peekskill, NY yesterday to pick up our trailer. We asked the excellent repairmen at Transatlantic RV to install our new Wi-Fi antenna and router plus repair a few minor items. Craig, their ace electronics expert, did a wonderful job and we peppered him with general questions before heading …

Last night, we enjoyed a sumptuous dinner cooked by our friends, Paul and Sandi. It was our pleasure to get out of the house (which looks like a war zone) and partake in some intelligent conversation and plenty of laughs with this wonderful couple. Paul and Sandi are a key part of our support system …
Seeking out work (marketing) is my responsibility in our small business. Truthfully, I enjoy creating emails and fliers, writing copy and using tools like Canva, Robly and other software to create pieces to send to our potential and existing clients. I call this part of marketing “the aerial assault” and I wish that it was …
When I woke up yesterday, I felt a lot of fear in my body. I said to myself, “it’s January 6 and we’re set to push off on February 1st and I have so much left to do and it’s going to be impossible to get all this done!” In addition, I was up at …
