From One Extreme To Another

Well, the title of this post might be a little extreme as well but the weather has given us a big twist in the last 24 hours. It has gone from 90 degrees and very high winds to an inch and a half of snow on the ground and 29 degrees.  Thank God for the [...] [...]

Extreme Cold!

We have had near record temps here in Quay County, New Mexico. Last week, Thursday morning to be exact, we recorded a low temperature of 18 below zero (Fahrenheit). It was not a record but close to it. The record low recorded was 22 below in 1963. However, who knows what the real low temperature [...] [...]

Bluegrass Fest

Well, here I am 2 months later and finally writing something here. Tonite is the first night of the Bluegrass Fest in Tucumcari and I am getting ready to get up on stage in a few hours with my bandmates and open the show. Little nervous but not too bad. We will be opening for [...] [...]

Getting Lazy Again

Looks like I have abandoned this blog again but to tell the truth I just haven’t had a lot to say lately and I’ve been rather busy with other interests.

Heat!

Man it has been hot here lately! We were 101 today and it looks like it will be in the 100′s for the rest of the week and some of next week. We are supposed to get a cold front?? in next week that will bring our temps down to the middle 90′s. It rained [...] [...]

Rain!

Yes it did rain! We got a half inch Saturday evening and it came slow and soaked in. Just what the doctor ordered. For those of you who don’t live in an arid climate, those of us who do thank God for every precious drop of moisture. Also, for those of you who think New [...] [...]
