Episode 254 – Notations & Celebrations
As of my recording & sharing this, it would have been my dad’s 82nd birthday. This show is not a tribute…I’ve done enough of that these last 3 years! This show is, however, a notation of how I came out the other side of all of this…intact. After all, most of this episode’s music was […]
