Kori Linae Carothers’ Music and a four mile run ….

….Perfect Together The Morning Run…… So if there ever was a morning that had a good excuse for not running, today was it! We babysat Oliver last night and didn’t get home until 1:30 this morning!!

When the alarm went off this morning I thought “Do I really want to do this?” The answer was less than a resounding yes!  But at least it was a yes! The more  I thought about it I thought well I…

Traveler – Lawson Rollins

Lawson Rollins – Traveler – Another Awesome Album!   I discovered the fantastic guitar of Lawson Rollins a few years ago.

Just ask Guitar Player Magazine who says this about his playing: “ungodly classical chops…dazzling speed, uncanny accuracy and beautifully delicate touch.”  That artistry is on display again on Rollins’s latest release Traveler.
