Thank you so much for a wonderful evening! Tonight’s livestream really tugged at my heartstrings with your angelic version of “Dream a Little Dream” which was one of my friend Carolyn’s favorite song to sing. She was an amazing talent that left us too soon. When you sang “Edelweiss” it brought down the house, as that was my mom and dad’s favorite song. In fact we sang it at both of their funerals. Christmas has never been the same since, but you brought back many fond memories tonight, and I can’t thank you enough. The photos are from my recent trip to Munich to reconnect with family there. It was my first time back in 8 years, but I will return soon. Your music is part of my daily life, and I don’t think a day has passed since I found you on YouTube, that I don’t listen to one of your songs or stream one of your videos. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the new year! Much love to you all! Brian XOXO

A little late to the game, but here is some aerial footage of my little harbor town, Port Jefferson on Long Island. It’s still a working harbor with a ferry boat that goes from here to Bridgeport, CT and a gravel plant on the west side of the harbor. Taking the ferry is a much nicer way to head north than to drive through the city! It’s an old shipbuilding town, and my family on my mom’s side dates back to the 1600’s on the island. My grandmother ran the ferry office for 30 years, so the docks were my playground growing up. I used to ride the old ferry boats all day and Captain Joe used to let me steer the ship. Some of my family members were shipbuilders, some worked for a sand mining operation (that created a cove at the NE corner of the harbor), and it is rumored that a few were involved with rum running during prohibition. I have moved around a lot, but wound up back here 8 years ago.
