Just a couple of cool pics. I included the picture of Chuck because it is a cool picture of the great innovator, in his heyday. I just like the old shack too. Funky.

Not much in the mood for rambling today. Tired of the "health care" debate. Just settle it in Washington, and leave us out of it. Hope we get some reform, and better access cost, but the rightwingers are determined to ruin our fun, as usual. Oh well.

I don't go to the doctor much, but want to have the option, if I need to, without ruining myself financially. Don't know any other civilized country today where this happens like it does in the good old USA.

I think I talked about our trip up to South Carolina, do drop Mom at her son's house (Jim). We went weekend before last, driving 12 hours on Friday, straight through. I call it "driving miss daisy". She did really well, I think, using her walker, and though it was a slow go, showed some determination. However, since getting to Jim's, she has given him a good run for his money - getting up a night a few times, by herself, to the bathroom. Problem is, she is unsteady on her feet, and Jim is afraid she will fall and break something again. Old age is hell, and being the aging child of a WW2 generation person is no fun either. At least she's not our immediate problem this time, as she was for six month this year. I do miss her, though.

Listening to live Stones concert from 75, in Buffalo, NY; good stuff - Mick Taylor playing that snakey guitar, Keith churning out the chuncky Chuck riffs, Bill and Charlie providing the funky bottom, and I think Billy Preston on pianer. Mick, of course, doing his mid-70's funky best, including pseudo-Caribean accent, at times. Lost of stuff from Gimme Shelter, Exiles, etc. Great stuff.
