OK, back to LIFE!




Life on the Coast is full of MUSIC! There is never a shortage of venues to visit and stars to see at local events! For those of you who might just remember when we lived in Taos, New Mexico, we met an amazing Pueblo Indian named Robert Mirabal, who has made quite a name for himself for his interesting music combining the spiritual Pueblo Indian music with jazz! We went to an "up close and personal" performance here in Lincoln City at our local Tribal Casino. They always bring some wonderful entertainment. Robert has been here several times and keeps coming back because he has such a tremendous draw. We enjoyed his music, which took us back to some of the good times in Taos and the beauty of the Pueblo culture. Never mind that they live simply -- perhaps we could learn a lot from the way they live!






That amazing show was on Friday night. On Saturday, we drove about an hour south of here to Yachats (pronounced ya-hats) to attend a Celtic Festival. Our entertainment dish has been quite diverse this week-end ~ and full. We had a lovely time, learning Irish line/slide/jig dancing, and then attending a concert of amazing Celtic music. The show was about 2 1/2 hours long and full of high energy, wonderful dancing music. It was an evening well-spent. I love this place!
