Emily Decks Out for the Sandman Show at Elmo's





Yesterday afternoon a bunch of us went down to St. Elmo's in Brewery Gulch to hear our friend Sandman perform his unique blend of Cowboy Rap and Poetry (you've got to hear it to understand - check out his website). 

One of our own - Emily - was sporting quite the amazing outfit...which used to belong to Sammy Davis, Jr.! She says a friend of hers back in New Jersey passed it along to her after a photo shoot with said Sammy. 

Now, I think that's just way cool!

    You should've seen Emily's dress when I did the house show last week!!

    Thanks so much for promoting, Charlene.

    HAhaha! Ohh, I'm so flattered! When you said you'd put me in your blog I didn't know you meant title and all! Wow!

    But hey, as long as this is all about me and Sandman, where's the one of us together??? Did it not come out?

    Oh, and about the suit, well, um, that's not the story -- do we care? The Sammy part's true, anyway, and that's what matters, right?

    Oh, it's not much, and less glamorous! Lisa Eisner, a wonderful big shottish photographer bought up a collection of Sammy's clothes. (This is LA, not NJ.) She bought 'em for herself, cuz she's styley and smallish, but not as small as I am. This particular suit didn't fit her and she thought it might fit me. Which it does, obviously, as though it were made for me!

    Ya see, Sammy and I both wear size BLACK JEW.

    Love it! Thanks for the clarification! If I see any other BLACK JEW sized famous clothes around, I'll be sure to pass them along to you...

    Thanks for the thought, but I'm afraid that's a no-no until Shawnee installs my closet!

    Wow! Very cool! (But, I'm not sure which were your nieces). Thanks for this!

My Daughter Visits Bisbee!!!

Image
Good morning Bisbee! It looks like it's going to be yet another beautiful day here in Tiny Town (I didn't coin the term...I have our friend Juliette Beaumont, the bartender at Elmo's to thank).  I've got the wonderful "hurry up & wait" task of needing to wait for a visit from the cable company to deal with the inconsistent internet connection I have. But, the next few hours are mine alone. Nice. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to picking up my lovely daughter, Mira, at the airport in Tucson this evening and having her here in Bisbee for a week! I moved here last June on the same day she left for her travels in India, Cambodia and Thailand this past summer. She's a world traveler, and it will be very cool to show her my new home. I'm hoping to introduce her to as many of my new Bisbee friends as possible. We'll be seeing you around...
