How are you today?
It is a beautiful sunny day here at last so I intend to catch a few rays before they disappear.
My post is brief today after such a long one last time. I will finish responding to commenters later today or tomorrow.
In the meantime, instead of sharing a photo of a bright sunny day I will share with you some beautiful cowboy art set to one of the best voices I've ever heard for all around soothing music in the country genre.
I was listening to this wonderful singer on Saturday while I cleaned the kitchen cabinets.
It brought back a lot of memories of when I was a teenager and my siblings and I would be babysitting every Saturday night (and more often too). It also brought back lovely memories of Kenya. Believe it or not, the music of Don Williams, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton is very popular in many parts of Africa, including Kenya.
When I was babysitting, I would also watch television or listen to music as most teenagers do. Lots of times the parents had a wonderful music collection of all kinds of country artists. Included in one household was the music of Don Williams. The song I've chosen to share is one of my favourites of his because though the words may depict someone who is on the razor's edge of depression, he is also believing in God and holding on to the promise of a better day coming. The music itself is fast paced and very upbeat and makes me want to dance for joy. (As an aside, there is also a video on youtube which shows Don Williams' visit to Zimbabwe. If you'd like to see it you can see it here . It is a 1 hour documentary. If you can't watch it all, at least watch the first 3 minutes. It will touch your heart).
This video features some fantastic cowboy art too which I thought might be fun for some of you. I am not a cowgirl but I grew up in cowboy country. Many of my relatives were rodeo fans. I also have a few cowboys in the family, the youngest being one of my nephews.
