The Cat Sanctuary in Portland

The sun was now setting so it was time to head back to Portland. But before we got there, we stopped off at Jennifer’s Cat Sanctuary in Vancouver. Jennifer is a cat whisperer. I’m hoping to feature her in my Cat Lovers Podcast in a month or so after I do a feature on the […]

Relaxing House Concert in Oregon

That must’ve been the most-relaxing house concert I’ve done, especially solo. Yesterday morning, I drove from Portland to Eugene listening to Marketplace and Music Business Radio podcasts. It was another beautiful drive. Oregon really is a gorgeous state. Lovely trees, rolling hills, mountains in the distance. I started thinking about it and realized if it […]

Bragging About Celtic Music Success

Tonight, I wrote some news that I sent off to the Ceili, a newsletter put out by Southwest Celtic Music Association. It got me thinking of my successes. I’m not really one to brag about about my accomplishments. Most of the time, I forget to tell people about them period. Part of the reason is […]
