(Looking for my friend Jim Urban's Third Coast Studio in Port A? Click Here)

What is a 3rd coast you might ask?

Well, for me a third coast is any place that's right. A place where you get the warm & fuzzies inside, life if good and everything is right with the world. Your third coast can last for 10 minutes or it can last a lifetime.

You can't actively look for it though, you just follow your heart and it will find you.

I guess you can tell I'm from Texas, I could be living anywhere and I'd still be "from" Texas and I would still find my third coast. I suppose it's kinda like you can close your eyes for a fleeting second... and use your mind to take you anywhere you want to go, your third coast can follow you anywhere.

I've got to thank a good friend of mine, Larry Joe Taylor for helping me be more aware of my very own third coast. That's him in the banner image above in a shoot we did for a DVD in tribute to our friend Rusty Wier, (RIP Rusty) in regards to Rusty's song "Sunrise in Port A". And yeah, we really did get up for the Sunrise.

Inside these pages you will find out about me along the way. Most of this site is really just a place for me to hang my bookmarks of stuff I'm interested in. I'm kind of an eclectic kind of guy, I like a lot of different styles of music but this site will mostly focus on Texas songwriters, many of whom are my friends. I am a 1st class geek & nerd, not that I am really good at much but I dabble at a lot of programing, website creation and image programs.

I like to do Photography and play golf as well.

There will be some areas about my wonderful family, my wife Chantel, my daughter Kelley and my son Chase. Buddy the dog may even sneak in every once in a while. So stick around, watch the site develop,come back often.

All in all, I'm doing pretty good. Since I found my 3rd coast.
