I got her a bottle and headed out to my back porch where we were greeted by cool weather, singing birds, and the sun coming up. <br /><br />In the 5 years Liz and I have been married, we've never owned our own home. It is amazing, sublime, and nearly euphoric to wake up in a home all your own. One you've earned. One in which you will raise your family. IN.CRED.IB.LE. <br /><br />Something for which to be very thankful! I'll post some pictures when we get all settled. In the mean time, here's your weekly dose of music mania.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntHKAegQ6Gk">1. Midnight Train to Georgia- Gladdys Knight and The Pips-</a> I love The Pips-- their harmonies, their dancing, and their cheap-hack pimp suits-- I love it all. This version from American Idol is even better.<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uos3qj0NuYs"><br />2. Wildwood Flower- June Carter Cash-</a> Reese Witherspoon and her version are a big step up in looks and sound from the original....but it's June. A nice melody and good folksy sound. <br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqm5-SBqHOM"><br />3. Fishin' in The Dark- Nitty Gritty Dirt Band-</a> Simply a classic. <br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKMHtcZ7dAQ"><br />4. Like A Prayer- Madonna-</a> I had a request to add this to the list. Plus, who's not nostalgic for 1989?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OS3bpjPQNg">5. Faith- George Michael-</a> I bought the whole "best of" album, and not ashamed to say because of Eli Stone. <br /><br />Here's to a great Tuesday!<div class="blogger-post-footer">Until next time...</div>Cameron Clarktuesdayco@hotmail.com
