Morning, may this week find you well with interesting activities. Watching spring unfold and plants wake up is one way to watch time pass. In December I was rising in the dark at 7 am and needed to start evening chores by 3 pm to race the approaching darkness. Now the sun is awakening me at 5 am and daylight is available to after 7 pm for outside activities.
One of our greatest luxuries is controlling our own time. Most of our lives are controlled by clocks, schedules and planned activities of work, vacations choreographed to the minute detail and goal orientated hobbies. One time thief is using medications and drugs that were originally started as a benefit, now have become another controller in one's life.

Something/Someone Old

My Something Old today is Meteora, Greece:



As you sip that first or second cup of French press java ... you might catch yourself scratching your head and wondering out loud, "exactly what is community radio and why in the world should I care?"
Let's talk about that today ... along with a look back to the days before corporate radio. I'll share my listening history with you and encourage you to share your own radio memories. It should be a fun ride.
Please do come along!


Today's number is 2
