On the ferry: Proud papa Bill Percich is glad to have Erica home for a bit before she moves to Australia to practice massage (which the 2004 FHHS grad learned in Hawaii)...she takes off in August. Good to see our kids doing good things, and making the world an easier place to live...
Keeping cool…do you have people from around the country telling you how hot it is, there? One more nice reason to live here… 🙂 Let’s see what’s going on…
Listen to Anna, y'all.

Here’s a video I made from last year’s Relay:

Gently used...could be yours!
• Libby Smith has her “gently used moped” for sale – here’s more info on Facebook marketplace.
• Music all around!
I asked David Bayley what he was up to, tonight – he reports:
The Cask & Schooner (the former Front St. Ale House)has started scheduling local performers a few nights a week, currently Tuesday and Thursday. Happily, I’ll be returning for my second appearance there this Thursday, the 28th from 8-10pm. In addition to the various roots music styles I perform, I’m adding more vocals to the mix with some classic blues favorites.
The restaurant is off to a great start, drawing large crowds of tourists and locals alike. See you there!
Also tonight: Over at the Rumor Mill, Tony has live band karaoke with his band T:FLO at 8pm. It’s your chance to be a rock star!

Father Hung Nguyen (left) is welcomed to the island & St. Francis Catholic Church yesterday by Father Raymond Heffernan. Father Nguyen told me at Ernie's that he came to the island earlier this month from Seattle. Welcome!
• Speaking of St. Francis, here’s my version of Brother Sun, Sister Moon, which I’m singing just for you!
