Life is Good
Last night we made the trek to Yoshi’s in the city. We had dinner and then attended Jon’s performance. While the food was okay the music was incredible, even though it wasn’t jazz! I can’t help but feel lucky to have good friends, family and a cousin that kicks butt on the piano. Jon opens …

Chop Bar
