Get Out of Jail, Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Dop

Welcome to another edition of Artful Notes where we might make you dance, we might make you smile, and we might make you sad. What we won’t do is tell you how to act before you go on vacation.

Let’s go!

Art I’ve Found

Vitor Esteves

Vitor “Victor” Esteves is a medical doctor by day, and a fantastic photographer, both by land and by drone, when not playing doctor.

He likes to travel the world, and his shots are always wonderful to see in my art feed.

My Art

Finding Refuge

On Big Island, Hawaii, back in the old days, Puʻuhonua o Hōnaunau was considered a place of refuge. If you broke Kapu (sacred law), punishment was death. Your only hope? Getting your butt through the ocean, over the rocks, and to the pu’uhonua.

Music I’ve Found

Scatman John

I was playing musical bingo at a local establishment and the category was one-hit wonders. Luckily you were able to Shazam to find out songs, but it was hard to remember to do the Shazamming when all I wanted to do was dance to “Scatman (ski-ba-bop-ba-dop-bop).”

Sadly Scatman John Paul Larkin developed lung cancer and passed away, but his awesomeness lives on, even if just a musical bingo song.


My Dorky Song

At Work. Before Vacation.

You know how you are going to go on vacation soon, and you have two choices at work? Yup, you can just be in vacation la-la land already and get nothing done, or work your tail off in preparation for the vacation.

That was me a few weeks ago before we went on vacation.

Yup, I ended up working my tail off.


One More Thing…

Who Doesn’t Like a Cute Beaver?

Petunia the baby beaver is cute as a button. Seeing Petunia will make you smile, but her story is sad. Sorry to bring you both up and down with the same thing.


Thanks always for your interest!

If you would be so kind to share this newsletter with your friends, I would appreciate it!

See you next week!
