Venus DeMars, Jason Lytle, Plushies & More!

hat a weekend! Bisbee buzzed with activity and entertainment into the wee hours of morning. First, we were entertained by Jason Lytle and band in the Starlite Cabaret on Saturday night. They played to a full house, which was a great success.

Late Saturday night I attended the Moulin Rouge/Absinthe Tasting party in the Gulch. Thanks to Carrie & Christi, Dr. Suzanne Walsh, Juliette Beaumont and a cast of more than I can name, it was incredible. I've decided the Parisien Absinthe is my favorite. But, I did sample them both. Live dangerously...taste bravely!

Sunday afternoon, Venus DeMars returned to Bisbee from St. Paul, MN and performed an amazing solo concert for us at Elmo's. The theme was "Plushies", so, many in the crowd wore fuzzy, plushy animal costumes (why? because...). Lynette, Venus' wife, read a handful of her lovely poems, which was an added treat. Such talent!

This could have been three postings, but, I'm rolling it all into one. Have I said this before? I LOVE Bisbee!

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...

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!
