Steve and I've been really busy getting the farm ready for winter etc....you understand what I mean....there's sheep to shear, filling our barn with hay, chicken and rabbit feed...and chopping and stacking wood for our wood stove, then there's harvesting our garden goodies and putting them up for winter too. yum..
Steve'll be rehearsing tonight with the band, WALTER's BIRTHDAY. That's JON BARONI/keys/harp/vocals, SCOTT ERCOLIANI/drums, TOD LEMKUHL/guitar/vocals, with st_robert as sound engineer. Go HERE and HERE.
He's been jammin' with STEVE HICKS/drummer HERE, our neighbor and owner of HOBBY STREET STUDIOS in Yelm, TOD LEMKUHL/guitar/vocals of WALTER's BIRTHDAY, and, MARTIN SALINAS/guitar/vocals of THE MARTIN SALINAS BAND and former owner of LIQUID SOUL COFFEE ROASTERS in McKenna.
TERESA OAKMAN/vocals and the awesome YASMINE ARIEL/vocals HERE are wonderful new for me voices that I've [T. Jan] really enjoyed.
This Saturday night Steve has been invited to Kevin's birthday bash by KEVIN CHRISTENSEN/drums at THE STONEGATE in Tacoma. With TIM HALL/guitar/vocals and JERRY MILLER/guitar/vocals invited too I bet there'll be lots of good music and Steve'll have a real awesome time. I'll stay up to hear his full report when he gets home. Yea!

'Feel Like Chicken Tonight?'....Me Too

OK....Well, Steve did a tune by JAMES BROWN a few years ago when he played with Al Earick/guitar/vocals, and KEVIN CHRISTENSEN/drums, SHERYL CLARK/sax and other awesome area musicians in the band... ROAD DAWGS. This tune always started with Al asking if we all felt like chicken tonight? Of course, the answer was always 'Yes!...we did'. Then, the music would begin.
AND, now I'll ask you....'Feel like chicken tonight?....[HINT...'yes'].   Tamborine Borrilli/vocals and owner of THE SPIRAL CAFE in Yelm, recently informed me, when I asked about her OPEN MIC each Thursday evening from 6:30 to 9:30 pm at the Spiral,... THAT this week, yep, this very week the remodeling would be finished, and her very famous, juicy and magically yummy "All Natural Rotisserie Chicken" would begin. 
OK Now you're talkin' my kinda talk. Not only do I [T. Jan] love music....but, there's nothin' better...in my way of thinkin' than very yummy chicken with more music and more music. Let's all check out THE SPIRAL CAFE's new chicken real soon...OK?
That's THE SPIRAL CAFE.... 201 Yelm Ave. in Yelm

I've posted JAMES BROWN...'I Feel Good'...'cause I always feel good while eating chicken and listening to great music...you? This was posted on YOUTUBE

RIP ERNESTO AUGUSTIN BARELA By Crystal Sincoff

"RIP - Ernesto Augstine Barela


.by Crystal Sincoff on Monday, October 31, 2011 at 2:47pm.This was not as I expected. The feelings I am having. I have not talked to my father since I was in college and it was a strained relationship then. I don’t have many father daughter memories to fall back on with a smile. I did not get along well with him...
Am I crying for the little girl who remembers riding on her father’s shoulders as we go to cut down a Christmas tree up at Mt. Spokane? Or the girl who remembers her father tinkering with a car engine, while she sits at the wheel pretending to drive? Or the man he was that I never really got to know? The man my mother fell in love with. I wish I knew that man. The man who made my mother smile. The man I only got glimpses of.
My father was a putterer. He puttered around the garage, fixing things. He puttered in the yard, growing things. He was actually quite good with fruit trees, berries, gardens, plants. It was here that my father nurtured, not with people.
I don’t know what happened to my dad in Vietnam…but it made him hard. It made his ability to be a father, a husband, a happy person, impossible. I mourn for the loss of that person he could have been. The relationship we never had.
It is 2011 and my dad served in Vietnam before I was born. More than 40 years after that war it was Agent Orange that killed him."
