As Christmas Approaches

This will be my first Christmas not living in NJ and no snow/cold/wet weather....kind of strange yet welcome...got the tree up, minor decorating..wish to keep it simple...sometimes less is more (in many ways). Been going to a great little bar/bistro/coffee house-type place in St. Pete....called the Hideaway Cafe and is run by a great couple, John and Nicole Kelly. John is a musician and has his own band (John Kelly Band - check it out !) and has opened a place to allow local musicians a place to jam on Tuesday and Thursday nights. They also have special guests/performers on the weekends. They also record live performances and have CD release parties... Awesome place...check out their site....http://www.hideawaycafe.biz/


See 'ya soon.....
