Howdy, Kathy.

The weekend has finally arrived! Bet you’re ready to lay real low for a couple of days.

Did you hear the Blue Angels flying around again this afternoon? They were practicing again for Arctic Thunder this weekend.

Weather Man--George Hall & His Hotel Taft Orcestra (1935)

I used this for a scene featuring a Vermont snowstorm in a family video that I once made.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hello Veterans, wherever you are!!

It's Tunes For Our Troops!

[Kathy in Alaska]

VRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!

[Fiji Hill]

One of my all-time favorites

The Clouds Will Soon Roll By--Bert Ambrose & His Orchestra (1932)

[radu]

Howdy, PRO.

Is the smoke still super-thick or has it thinned out a little?

Yesterday was Graduation Day for my foot. The boot is cast aside. YAY! I still have to wear a small lace-up/strap-up brace for a few weeks though. The breaks have healed but the ankle sprain was really bad and will take a little longer.

Ill Wind--Eddy Duchin & His Orchestra (1934)

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Pro...ready for the weekend? Continue relaxing?

Blue Angels here this weekend. Wish my knees would let me go out to Elmendorf. Thankfully my Dad and I were able to go a couple times years ago.

Hi, Kathy! A few of my favorite ‘Weather-Related’ tunes:

Elvis. ‘Kentucky Rain’ (Written by Eddie Rabbit)

And then you NEED some Eddie Rabbit after that!

‘I Love A Rainy Night’

The Storm that Struck Miami--Fiddlin' John Carson (1934)

In 1926 Miami was a "town of wealth and gold," But the people didn't keep the sabbath and sent away the cross. So on September 18, a category 4 hurricane made a direct hit on the city, killing about a thousand people.
