6/24 11:03 am: After teaching an early morning yoga class and chatting with students,
I headed over to Starbuck's here in downtown Ft. Lauderdale to access the web
and check my email. What a nice surprise to find a group note from my gals from
my Bikram Yoga Teacher Training! They would take such good care of me, on those
eve's post Bikram lecture, when there was still so much dialogue to learn!! Jen
and I would study in the van and then head to her place to snack on cheese and
crackers drink tea with the girls. I'm so glad we've kept in touch and I look
forward to many years of life and yoga together. Jen is "with child", (Not mine!
We were actually studying in the van and her husband is my frend), and we all
can't wait to meet her baby boy to be!
I've been saying goodbye to students this week and will packing up to head
north on Sunday. I've made some wonderful friend between here, West Palm Beach
and Stuart, FL and I look forward to returning on a regular basis to teach and
hopefully play music with the guys.
The future is wide open and I can see three definites on the horizon: Family,
Music and Yoga. That's enough. All I really need to be happy. Namaste.
6/29 11:50 pm: I made the drive up from Florida in two days or so after leaving
late Sunday 7/27 afternoon. I stopped off at the West Palm Beach studio and after
a quick detour to my buddy David's house (to discuss women, yoga, money and rock
'n roll) I made my way up the east coast. I stopped late Sunday morning somewher
in lower S. Carolina... woke up and did about an hour of "cold hotel room yoga"
and got back in my car and started driving. After another 8 hours or so I tried
to find a hotel roomin NJ and couldn't find anything for less that $60. Now I
could afford the $60 but I only needed to sleep for 4 or 5 hours! So I opted
for the comfort of my car in an NJ Turnpike rest stop. It's totally safe if you
park near where the truckers sleep. Well, it may be safe, but it sure ain't good
for your back! I predict it will take 3-4 months of yoga to straighten this one
out! My back is a mess after this drive. NEVER AGAIN!! Even better? I'm off
to Monterey to play Pebble Beach and Spanish Bay 7/2 to 7/6! I can barely walk
and I'm scheduled to play two of the most beautiful and difficult golf courses
in the world! The good news is, we usually drink a lot of scotch. I'll hit it
with scotch first and then hit it with yoga when I return!
