My Bob – In memory of Patricia Fogarty

Nashville Skyline

What to say?  I have always loved my records which were bought back in the day after much scrimping and saving for the absolute favourites, to have and to hold in my hands with love forever, never ever to part.

Solace in moments of delicious loneliness they wear their needle scratches much as I wear now the lines on my face but hear the songs, the tracks of your youth, and the years peel away.  Forever young.

Unbelievably (why do I say this?) Bob Dylan and Van Morrison among others will be playing concerts during the summer out at Forest Hills in Queens.  Do I want to be there?  You bet!   But I’m on the move in and out of NYC over the summer and I can’t commit to tickets, on the assumption that they’re not sold out already.

So Happy Birthday Bob, what’s 75 years when we were all so much older then but younger than that now?

Drifting with the falling snow into the delights of the Nevada ranges and ranches.  This is north of Las Vegas, which indeed almost everywhere in Nevada is and, as it turned out, winter road trip paradise!

As the sun slowly fades into the west I bid farewell to yet another year with fondness and gratitude for your company and support here on Monochromia.

Grateful thanks as ever to Joe for not only starting up the enterprise but more importantly for keeping it going with more than a modicum of ease and class.

Season’s greetings to one and all!

(Did this year just fly by or what?)
