Forgive quickly.
Love truly.
Laugh uncontrollably.
Never regret anything that made you smile.
Many around here have enjoyed Donny Morales’ songwriting and soulful singing. His hero: John Popper, of Blues Traveler.
The John Popper Project is coming to Telluride, tonight and Friday night, at the Sheridan Opera House. And Donny will be the opening act Friday night. Glenn Patterson will also sit in, before giving way to Popper and his band.
Would imagine it would be worth the drive over the hill with such an intimate atmosphere of the SOH, and its 222 seats.
Daily Press tidings…..
Always tweaking, modifying the “product.” This time, from the electronic side of the house. Shortly, we’ll debut our new Web site - www.montrosepress.com. It will be, as they say on Madison Avenue, “new and improved.”
Hopefully, it’ll debut early next month. The designers are likely “feverishly” working on it, making final tweaks and modifications. It’s a colorful son-of-a-gun, too.
Happy Birthday Greetings!, Saturday, to my pal and Local Good Guy, Francie Smiles, 10-year breast cancer survivor and fund-raiser extraordinaire/activist.
Dept. of incidental info….
The first American to have indoor plumbing installed in his house?
The poet, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. In 1840.
Quotable
“Love is a fire. Whether it is going to warm your heart, or burn down your house, you can never tell.”
—Joan Crawford, film actress
Last week, the Notebook mentioned how baseball fans can have their ashes placed inside urns with their favorite team logo. (Just the right decoration for the game room/den.)
Anyway, Megan Hess of Sunset Mesa Funeral Directors drops a shout about how they’re offering the service with eight team logos with more to come, including the defending world champs, the St. Louis Cardinals.
People remember Eric Drummond, a former award-winning photojournalist for the Daily Press, a few years back. Eric’s graduating from Metro State U. next month, and just got a photo job with the Summit Daily News in Breckinridge/Frisco, Colo. Good for him.
