I’m posting while sitting at the gate for my flight back to Hannover to rejoin the Rat Pack Tour. I’m in Terminal 4 at New York’s JFK Airport and surfing thanks to the Emirates Airlines Lounge network. It took at little while to connect but I am down the far end of the gate area!!
Should anybody else be passing this way, check it out….

Enjoy…

I don’t know if anybody’s even reading this site these days but, if so, I’m wondering if anyone has any recommendations for good trumpet cases?

Southport – home of the grimmest Ice Skating rink in the world.
