Bella, and my first dollar as a busker




well, it was a great day! - hanging out with Neil Brook and R.t. Taylor here in California... but i must say, one of the the highlights happened before we all met up. i had a bit of time to kill after the drive and before i was expected, soi stopped at a park and got my instrument to play a just a bit... well, i hadn't been there long before the cutest little girl, Bella, walked up and placed a dollar on the curb for me. i said it was not necessary but she insisted, so now i have made my very first dollar as a busker! -- needless to say, getting to hang out with Neil and RT, and also Jesse and Susan, was totally awesome - a great pleasure and an honor! -- thanks guys - see you tomorrow! / Rob
