For Your Consideration

Sometimes, Amanda and I like to take postcards and, inspired by the art, either draw or write something original on the back then send them off to friends. This is one of those.

For your consideration during your stay: HIKING! 

Good exercise, a chance to commune with nature, and only rarely would one expect to encounter a spectral male figure walking through the brush, unslowed and ethereal. I don’t know know why I’m mentioning it. But if you DO go hiking — and you should — and if you DO see a pale shadow, then please keep in mind that whatever mishap befell that lost soul, it would have predated the founding of our hotel & spa.

Learn to Swim

This one’s leaving soon for who-knows-where.

“Learn to swim! To not swim is an insult to our new political allies, the mer-men, who have begun to invest heavily in our local economy, supporting small businesses and, to be frank, putting food on all of our tables. Look. You already float. Without doing anything, you float. So move your arms and legs a little. If you get drowned, it’s like littering in their city and you come off like a big jerk. Learn. To. Swim.”

The Signal: EP116

The Signal: EP116 – Composed in a cafe in the international terminal of San Francisco Int’l airport (SFO). You’d think that might lead to an international travel theme, but it didn’t. It lead to the usual: 45 minutes of eclectic music from around the world. There’s a lot of instrumental stuff this time out, but we still fit in some rock and roll from Cambodia and a something-or-other from Morocco.

As ever, the file will be available for a limited time, so click the image or link above to grab a copy. You can decide later if you want to keep it. It’s 45 minutes of music that I personally vouch for. It’s a good time. Plus, you can’t beat the price.

Notes are below. I’m going to write them slightly later than these words you’re currently reading, but you won’t notice, because you’re in the future, when I’ve already found a free outlet at SFO to plug in and recharge.
