Holy Zoinkies Batman, We Got Robins!

Robins arrived earlier this week. It almost seemed like a swarm of them the one morning buzzing all around the house. This afternoon they were all over the place again. The photo above is facing the street from our house and looking to the right.

I don't know why they're back so early, but certainly could be the warm weather we've been having up and down the east coast. I guess they didn't get the latest weather forecast for this week. Tonight it's supposed to go down to 21 here. They're calling for snow in the higher elevations, which means they'll probably get snow in areas like Boone and Asheville - not here.

Our cats certainly don't care why the Robins are back. They just like watching them. Vita V. sits at the window in the photo below.

Remember, use that sunblock out there. - Salud!

The mix just seems very tight and I can't fit the songs in without repeating the "essence," "groove" or beat of another song. I think the mixes for me work best when they flow and take you from one place to another musically without beating you over the head with the same style. Another thing I like to do with the Summer Mix is incorporate the old alongside the new. I hate to put two old songs back to back, or should I say two songs from the same era back to back. Now as you look at my mix you'll see some old songs next to other old songs. I guess it's not a hard and fast rule for me, but I try to at least jump a decade between two old songs. Like last year I kept the sound effects to a minimum, using a mix I created of beach sounds for the opening and a crickets sound effect for ...
