"Because He Had An Interesting Face!"

A Giddy Up sketch

 Good "sunny" Sunday Morning, y'all.

Yesterday, I had a fun time with what I call, "The Demo Flyboys" very early in the morning. Besides talking about Boeing's vertical stabilizers in the early years, we also laughed about our teenage awkwardness with dating.
Three hours went by fast. So fast that I forgot to use my Giddy Up gift card to buy Tee's breakfast. (They sell a great Greek Frittata!) I felt bad returning home without breakfast, so I returned to the coffeehouse to pickup that frittata, and while waiting in my favorite "saddle" I noticed this very white haired man with an Andy Warhol hair cut scrolling madly on his iPhone.
His quiet intensity was just begging a sketch, and because I was sporting my briefcase, I had just the right tools to capture him, and the time to do it.
Tee enjoyed her frittata and I was happy with my time well spent.
First cup... old Giddy Up coffee from yesterday!

"PICKIN'."..


 Good "picking up 'da pieces" Wednesday Morning, all bodies!


Putting a bunch loose ends together and placing them where they're supposed to be I found these crusty, and rusty finger picks.

I never really got the hang of using them which is the reason I discovered them stashed behind a Tommy Lasorda bobblehead!

Second cup...
