"The Languid Tenderness" Gerluz ends his foray into the Baroque era with François Couperin's silky tune "Les Langueurs Tendres"

Spread your wings and sail away on the Solar Wind. Gort Braggern takes us on an adventurous ride to the outer planets in this lively bit of a tune.

François Couperin titled this song "The Gnat." And truly, this lilting tune evokes the charming image of a cloud of happy gnats dancing over the head of ones beloved. Gerluz brings the song to life with his piano rendering of the ancient and delightful harpsichord piece.

The Harbor for Fort Bragg, California is in the mouth of the Noyo River. It is a small port, but large enough for some fishing boats, expedition boats and some good seafood restaurants.

One of these roads runs alongside the Noyo River.

A cool morning full of promise. Ah, but the coffee tastes good. come on out to the back porch and watch the day begin underneath the the cherry trees

It clatters, it shakes it rattles and pops. The Old Jalopy comes sauntering down the street in a cloud of dust and a rhythm that make you think it might have the hiccoughs.

Put another pot of coffee on the boiler!   Have yourself another cup of joe. Then keep on drinking until your nerves are a tingling   and your foot just cant stop tapping the floor.
