The Auto- Biography of a Brave man in a Salon

When I went to White Oak last Friday I was not really expecting much. I envisioned it as little room with all the senior women crammed in there doing their nails and spraying toxic chemicals in their. I was right about the toxic chemicals I should have worn a gas mask nonetheless I still went. This time I actually played my guitar for these lovely women as they got their nails done. At first I started with some soft background music and then slowly progressed to a faster pace. Then they requested me to play some Hispanic oriented music unfortunately I had to improvise. I had a great time playing for these interesting women and when one of them said I should write a auto -biography on being the only brave man to enter a Salon. I never laughed so much in my life. They should start a tv show Grandparents say the darnest things!

Smile for the Camera!

It has been a concern from my followers that I am not adding exciting photos to spice my blogs up. Well I have gone back in each of my blogs and added some meaningful pictures to capture the reader more. This is not the only news I have though unfortunately I had to cancel playing at the Hospice House because the board feels I will have a better experience at the nursing home since they do not have a terminal illness. Another reason being the board feels I will be closer and have a better outcome if I keep coming back to play at the same place. Another reason why I have decided not to play at the Hospice House is because I do not think that the patients would be aware of me even playing. Also the family might want to visit with them and I do not want to get in the way of that.
