PHENOMENAL night at the Crown & Anchor in Provincetown last night. PHENOMENAL. Fred Boyle & Rich Hill KILLED it, Christopher Racine on lights and Shelley Jennings on sound added all the finishing fine point touches and made it effortless to sing and perform. AND THAT AUDIENCE!!! THAT AUDIENCE. OH. MY. GOD. Divine... Just divine. All of it. Thank you so much Provincetown. Thanks to the brilliant Bonnie MacLeod for the candid pic and the brilliant David Josef for the FABULOUS (new favorite) scarf!!! It takes a village, people. My heart is so full...

RIP, Marvelous Scribe.

Our magnificent Mary Oliver... Rest in Peace. Thank you for touching so many of us so deeply -- When death comes like the hungry bear in autumn; when death comes and takes all the bright coins from his purse to buy me, and snaps the purse shut; when death comes like the measle-pox when death comes like an iceberg between the shoulder blades, I want to step through the door full of curiosity, wondering: what is it going to be like, that cottage of darkness? And therefore I look upon everything as a brotherhood and a sisterhood, and I look upon time as no more than an idea, and I consider eternity as another possibility, and I think of each life as a flower, as common as a field daisy, and as singular, and each name a comfortable music in the mouth, tending, as all music does, toward silence, and each body a lion of courage, and something precious to the earth. When it's over, I want to say all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. When it's over, I don't want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real. I don't want to find myself sighing and frightened, or full of argument. I don't want to end up simply having visited this world - Mary Oliver When Death Comes

My dear friends, artists and neighbors Michael Steers (Anita Cocktail), Neal Fitzgerald and their three puggles lost everything but the clothes on their backs early Sat morning (Jan 12) as fire completely destroyed their home. They do so much for their community, including multiple benefits for very good causes (IMO.) If so inclined, please help them get back up on their feet. Thank you.

Ok. Maybe I need to get out more but COME ON! Have a great weekend. Spend it with something that lights up your heart.
