Do you ever have projects like that? They are sitting over on a shelf and you're thinking: "Oh, I gotta finish that one day..." Then one day arrives and you go over & look at it and realize it has been finished the whole time. It just needs a little dusting and some paint touchup.

This is one of those. I think I may have been conflicted with the tempo, I thought it might be too slow... But speeding it up would mess with the second statement... it's short, to be sure but now I have space on my shelf.

Low Tide at Soberanes Point, CA
Oct 20, 2020
Once again I found myself at the ocean with nothing better to do than subject my microphones to hostile conditions. I had been driving up and down along the coast south of Monterey looking for the right spot. I was looking for a protected cove-type location. One without a mile-long expanse of sand and giant waves from the deep ocean to come crashing in.
Wandering Around the Hills Nearby
Oct 11, 2020
Been spending a little time wandering about the local hills seeing what they have to offer... on days when the air is clear enough... Which lately has been more often than not, couldn't say that a few weeks ago, and really, there isn't much I can say about the wildfires that hasn't been said better already. I've only been inconvenienced by the smoke & fires... others have had it infinitely worse.
Nightbirds on the Noyo River
Oct 02, 2020
Way in the background, you can hear the distant roar of the surf. This location was about a mile and a half from the open sea and high tide was about an hour earlier.

Sometimes, when writing a song the title arrives first. Coffee Time Rag is an example. Other times you work out a musical idea and a title comes along during the process......
A Bit Above Sea Level
Aug 04, 2020
I decided the ocean air was too thick so I headed up to the Sierras. Walking around a little bit. You might think that camera gear might become lighter the closer you get to outer space, but that ain't so. I am beginning to suspect that the weight of camera gear increases in direct ratio to the number of miles one carries it multiplied by altitude.
A Bit by the Coast
Jul 01, 2020
Buzzed down from Redding to Monterey... This is not the train I rode in on, but you can find it parked along highway 273 in Redding.
Cherry Blossom Sunrise
Jun 25, 2020
A calming and slower piece in four acts and four minutes. Something to listen to while you are supping your morning beverage watching the sun rise though the cherry blossoms.
The Tiny Jalopy
Jun 11, 2020
My cartoon vision was complete no longer would the oppressed melodies cower in fear of a jangly piano.
Coffee Time Rag
Jun 11, 2020
It's time for a ragtime song! This song was scheduled to be released in the middle of May but my "Streaming Distributor" is a tad backed up. Oh well. Sorry to keep you-all waiting. There are still twomore finished peiced in their queue & I have a few other songs on the boiler.
My Latin Bouquet
May 01, 2020
The original title of this song was "in the Shade of the Ombu". ... the Ombu being a tree that grows in the pampa of Argentina & Uruguay. I was imagining a restful siesta under a tree, maybe a couple of Gauchos strumming their guitarras. But then I had another thought.
Lazy Day Waltz
Apr 23, 2020
It's a lazy waltz from a lazy day. I was intending it to form a different piece but one melody flowed to the next and, before I knew it, what I had intended to be a dance piece became this melodically progressive waltz. I had fun with it, I hope you do too.
Ocean Waves at Molera Point
Apr 03, 2020
I'm not a surfer, though perhaps I would like to be. I like the ocean. Every time I drive out to the coast there is that moment of the first smell of it. Sometime, if the wind is just right, you can be fifteen miles away when you sense the first hint of salt and seaweed. And then there is the thrill when you rise over the hill or curl around the bend and are presented with the far-off horizon.
Mid-Coast Meandering

From Gilroy to Carmel and a bit of bobbling about inland
Running Down The Coast
Mar 19, 2020
So I decided to take Highway One South from Mendocino to San Francisco It turned out to be a lovely day...
Frog Hollow
Mar 17, 2020
This is a full chorus of frogs. They start and they stop and then one starts singing again and others tentatively join in. You can identify certain individuals and different species. it's quite a fun time.
Northern California Drive Abouts
Dec 29, 2019
Not a whole lot to report. Been wandering about on the West Coast some more, resulting in a few more snapshots. These are from Northern & Central California.
