A Lovely Surprise!

Yesterday Richie was out putting the trash containers at the curb; I was getting it together to go to Thurs. Writers. I heard him come back into the house and then he yelled, "We've got a surprise visitor!"

It was our old neighbor and good friend Paul Baker! He and his wife Cathy used to live next door, but one and we were devastated when they moved to Orange County some years ago.

Paul is a Master Painter, who specializes in faux finishes for home interiors and he is working a job in the nabe and decided to pop by and see if we still lived here. It was so good to see him again.


In addition to being a Master Painter, he is also a very talented musician. All three of us were in a hurry so he jotted down the Website for his group and later I looked it up.

The group is called the Verve Sax Quartet (vervesaxquartet.com) In the photo, he's the farthest guy on the right. Isn't he a handsome devil? Cathy his wife is a beautiful blonde and they make a great-looking couple.

The group has been together since 2007 under the leadership of Dennis Rudolph. Click on their repertoire and when a song title is in blue, click on it and listen to them play! How cool is that?
