In honor of my birthday this month, you should please excuse the pun! Yep, it’s time to celebrate. I’m putting away the tax prep work and taking a break from teaching. No performances are booked in the near future. I’m through planning photo shoots & studio time, and happy leaving my You Tube Channel as is, for now. It’s time for a little birthday vacation. My Darling Sweetheart, my beautiful “Labra-dobie-dor”, and I are heading for a cabin in a densely wooded area up by the Russian River. There will be nothing better to do than stare at the fire, relax in the hot tub, put a jigsaw together and eat Shelly’s practically world famous lasagna casserole and some See’s butterscotch squares. It’s a tough life, but somebody’s got to keep the vacation rental industry alive and well.

“Springified”
ByCynthiaIt’s the season for something new. So when I got an email intro to Dan Damon from our mutual webmaster, I absolutely had to go hear him.

What Makes Me Happy
ByCynthiaI love recording at Sandy Stone’s studio. My new CD containing three of my original inspirational songs is done, and I’m happy with it.
