There is nothing more theraputic than going for a day at the Pacific. The water was cold and salty but did it feel good! It was the best workout I’ve had in a long time and guitar playing always gets better after getting covered with sand, salt and sun.
Incidentally I was hanging out with two very cool friends and guitarists Alex Sack and Steve Sunnarborg. We dominated Ventura. In the evening I ended up following Alex around, first at the Ventura Community College where he taught a blues class, then later to someone’s house for a private lesson. It was a very nice lady who had a Gernot Wagner, Jim Redgate and Greg Smallman in her collection! Wow!
Hey Stephen,
Good call! Alex & I spent several stellar days near Fernandina beach in North Florida talking jazz and enjoying the healing waters. He’s revving up for the Savannah Jazz Festival. Check it out amigo.
