Outside there is melting ice out on Lake Erie. Just two weeks ago everyone in my neighborhood was shoveling snow and still reveling in Christmas. Today it’s the sounds of wind and rain. Maybe you live some place with better weather. From here you can travel north, south, east and west and you’ll eventually find it. On a personal note, I just realized the dried fruit mix I just ate had expired in 2007. I’ll keep you updated on what happens with that!

Anyhow, I must interrupt this malaise to bring on some really good news. You’ve read the heading so you know that we’re bringing the Lake Show to the welcoming shores of Santa Barbara. And I cannot think of a better town for our California premier. Gotta give some major props to former Cleveland surfer and current Santa Barbara resident Jalama Jim, his wife Kim and festival programmer Russ Spencer for all of their guidance on what is certain to be a great experience. We will keep you updated.

Oh yeah, check out this new article featuring Santa Barbara in Drift Magazine. There are some revealing insights on artistry and shaping, along with the beautiful iconic imagery which is characteristic of Drift.
