Eddie if I remember correctly you are Down Under and in spring headed towards summer, that's good news for you!
We are feeling Fall here in NorCal and the days are growing shorter and cooler...I'm a summer guy but we need a lot of snow and rain this year due to
the drought, keeping my fingers crossed.

Nice to see you Gray, this show was amazing they
stayed clear of most of the popular hits and played very complex songs at a level that really impressed me, Steve Howe was incredible and the band was
brilliant.
H-Dog who was no huge YES fan was completely amazed and enjoyed it immensely and said some songs had a Frank Zappa-esq feel!
The show was just under 3 hours with about a 20-minute break. Some songs meander for well over 10 minutes with the full Prog on display including
rock, jazz, blues, heavy metal, country, rockabilly, and surf guitar weaved in.
It reminded me of King Crimson to be honest, just top shelf.
Here is the set list
Set 1:
On the Silent Wings of Freedom
Yours Is No Disgrace
No Opportunity Necessary, No Experience Needed
(Richie Havens cover)
Wonderous Stories
The Ice Bridge
Dare to Know
Heart of the Sunrise
Set 2 (Close to the Edge):
Close to the Edge
And You and I
Siberian Khatru
Encore:
Roundabout
Starship Trooper
More to come...

It's Friday but Kat isn't feeling wonderful she is
stuffed up like allergies plus October is notorious rice farmers burning and farmers burning tree trimmings which can be a large fire when you have
100 acres of rice fields or 40 acres of almond tree's or some such...


So we will keep the ship in the Harbor at anchor tonight...

Best wishes and good luck to one and all.....
The Yes show sounded amazing, there's nothing quite like really good musicians live.....
I'm gutted that we didn't make George Thorogood, it was health
over (shot term) happiness, Covid case numbers had been surging in
the central city all week, so we stayed home, and listened to the CD.....
One of the reclusive old boys up the coast is slowly recovering from the new improved long Covid,
he went from Mister boundless-energy to Mister bed-ridden.....
The little woman in conjunction with one of the coastal cavettes
have assumed chicken soup control, he's lived alone for twenty plus years,
if the Covid doesn't get him this intense burst of extended feminine contact just might,
that coastal cavette's a clingy one too, so there could be matchmaking going on.....
On the plus side, the little woman needs the distraction right now,
it was a year yesterday that dear Cookie left us, about now it feels like it was yesterday.....

Gray my friend thank you for posting an update on the going on's way out in the valley...To bad you didn't get to make it to the concert I am sure he
destroyed it, but better safe than sorry!
It is both sad and amazing (how quick time pass's) that it has been a year since your dear Cookie passed, she, you and the little woman are in my
thoughts.
It sounds like the long time reclusive is getting a heavy dose of Womanization and with a possibility of romance in the air, it doesn't get better
than that.
Hopefully with summer on its way the old boy has a great bounce back to his boundless energy self and hooked -up if the coastal cavette plays her soup
right.
Please post again soon and I am dying to hear what you are spinning on the old kerosene record player, keep the faith brother...

Sorry for the long absence, we hit a bit of a
rough patch her in Plooksville…Monday was the 6 years ago that Kats husband Terry passed away, while a tough day for Kat she is strong and endures
like a trooper.
Unfortunately her daughter (My so-called adopted daughter TADP because she stayed with Terri and I almost nonstop for two years) her good friend from
childhood committed suicide. Kat new this girl well and she was in and around her house and family for 30 years so hit her hard.
The poor thing slipped down a bad road years ago and could not find her way back. TADP tried with all her heart to help her but when people get on bad
drugs (meth) sometimes you have to use caution because they get very unpredictable.
TADP had contacted my youngest daughter TDPTY about a week or so ago and had consulted with her because she was being contacted by CCPS (California
Child Protective Services) my daughter worked there over two years and told her they were most likely going to take the children (7&15 years old)
into custody because she tested dirty twice in a row.
They came and got the kids last Friday, apparently she went to her boyfriends Sunday night went in his room barricaded the door. When the boyfriend
could not get in, he called the Police and they broke down the door where they found she hung herself.
Kat, TADP, and TDPTY found out Monday it was a tuff pill to swallow on a day of mourning, the grand kids took it hard also.
We are hanging in there and going to a function at the lake where we will be setting off Candle Lanterns floating on the water. I did not know the
girl that well but had seen her at many functions over the years, I am circling the wagons for Kat and the girls.
Talk to you all soon…

We are trying to move forward so lets get back to
some normalcy…
It’s a Plook on Tour Tuesday Randemonium…
Fall Sunset at the Palace during a thunder storm…



A huge thunderhead was lurking over Lake Tahoe…


Minnie getting costume on for the Halloween tricker treaters, she loves to hand out candy…


My granddaughter in Rohde Island after a rough day at the Pumpkin Patch…

Terri’s Rose Bushes are exploding with roses…

I had a full check-up and an MRI of my neck and lower back…
Doctor is surprised that my neck isn’t bothering me due to bulging discs between 4 & 5 and 6 & 7…

He is even more surprised my Sciatic Nerve isn’t causing me extreme pain due to the nerve pinch in my lower back at L5-S1, said he would expect me
to need surgery but since I am fine no need now…

Stay tuned to for more Plook on Tour ...
