Happy First Day of Summer!

It's here!

Today, the first day of Summer!



Locally, it's expected to be a spectacular day (yesterday was extremely humid), so being on the DL will be that much easier, having a very fine day to recuperate.

As has been our tradition the past few years, we post one of, if not the tops, coolest version of the Gershwin gem, from his opera, 'Porgy and Bess'.

Revel in the music and enjoy the day!

Happy Summertime!

Break out the suntan lotion!

It's here - Summer - officially, today!

Between the price of gas, and a significant chunk of the country being flooded, I can appreciate if there is a lack of celebratory spirit to welcome in the new season.

So, we'll pitch to, hopefully, jump start you.

We hope, after you listen to this, you will agree that it is the hippest, coolest, most out-of-sight rendition of this classic gem.

We give you Angelique Kidjo.
