Saying Goodbye to Summer with Blooming Cosmos
The winds have shifted and the cooler breezes have been blowing in to say autumn is here and winter is on its way. With autumn comes some amazingly colorful mountain views but also to delight, the cosmos bloom. It’s a flower that holds on until the end and seems to wave goodbye to summer and welcomes us in to autumn. It’s one of the last flowers to enjoy before the plants begin to wilt and turn brown winter ice and snow make their own beautiful scenes to view.The pinks and white of the blooms conjure up memories of the recent spring and summer fun we had frolicking outside with bare feet…

The Busan Rock Festival Rocked My World
Never able to pass up free room and board and backstage passes I went with Jae-oo down to Busan for the annual Busan Rock Festival this past weekend. Every Single Day has played at this festival before, but the crowd this year was bigger than I’d ever seen and that made it all the more fun. Watching Jae-oo perform for hundreds if not thousands of people is amazing. Seeing him in his element doing what he loves… no words. There are so few people that are living and doing what they love and being successful. That’s truly sensational to see. I’m not such a loner backstage anymore as, after attending…
