Danny G's Sunday Serenade with Dino: "Baby, Won't You Please Come Home"

 Welcome back, mi amici. 

Welcome to Fall 2024, week one...Haha!! 

Yup...it's official, pals...Summer is gone & it's time to be movin' on. 

Now, I don't mean relocatin' or nothin' like that. I'm sayin' it's time to kick Autumn into FULL gear! Let go of those hot & humid days, pallies! It's time for crisp & chilly nights. 

Wait! Is that a good trade?! Haha!! Yes it is! 

Now let's bang the sand outta our ears & get some cool cool Fall-type croons uh'-croonin'! Ha! 

These are GREAT GREAT times for throwin' in the ol' ipod headphones...gettin' outdoors...& spendin' some quality time...with Dino! Yes, my friends...DINO! Who else is the BEST companion for cleanin' up yards & packin' up the patio?! 

He relaxes my soul & cleanses my brain. Turns work into fun & chores into play. 

I'll show youse what I mean, pals. 

Let's find a nice, easy tune to get youse started. Somethin' from "The Dean Martin TV Show" al b um...one of my personal faves. How's 'bout a little "Baby, Won't You Please Come Home?" Yes...this is a perfect Serenade for today. 

A TOTALLY chilled-out croon to EASE us into the new season. 

Just soak it in, my friends. Inhale it...hold it....ahhhhhh. See what I'm sayin', mi amici? 

So So calmin'. 

OK, pallies...let's get outside & get to work! Oops...I mean play! Haha!!  

Enjoy!  

Danny G's Sunday Serenade with Dino: "The Things We Did Last Summer"

 Well well well...Here we are...once 'gain, my friends...kickin' off a NEW & 'CITIN' Autumny season! 

Man! Time TRULY does fly! 

We biddin' a due to 'nother BEA U TI FUL...hot & sunny Summer & lookin' ahead to an equally BEA U TI FUL...cooler & calmer Fall! 

Yes, we will have plenty of chilly breezes & quickly movin' towards shorter days. But guess what, pallies o' mine...It's all good to me! It's a GLORIOUS time o' year! 

But, just the same, mi amici...hope youse JAM-PACKED these last few months with ALL THINS' Summertime-DINO! I'm sure youse did. We're Dino-holics...that's what we do! Haha!! 

So, it looks like It's time for your ol' pal, Danny G., to trade in the pool swimmin' & sun-bakin' for apple pickin' & leaf-rakin'! Hahaha!!! I'm ready though, pallies! I stored as much Summery memories as I possiblly could...Stockpiled my cupboards with crushed tomatoes & vino...& most importantly...I created a SWINGIN' little "go-to" section in my brain that is COM PLETE LY STUFFED with Hot & Sunny Dino-vibes! 

Yup...Dino-tunes & cookouts... Dino-tunes & fireworks... Dino-tunes & walks on the beach...O...did I mention the Dino-tunes? Yea...I did. Haha!! 

Well, mi amici...seems pretty obvious to me & my fellow Dino-holic, Danny G's daughter, Stella G.,...that there's only ONE very special croon that can keep ALL these very special & sunny memories simmerin' on low...'til next year. "The Things We Did Last Summer". 

It will be that "life-line" we can reach for when thins' get a wee bit too tough to bare! When the chilly weather seems to be hangin' 'round just a little too long...when we find ourselves longin' for a sunny day & a yummy drink in the shade! 

Yea, pals...we'll be just fine. 

Just keep those hot Summer days in mind...& Dean is NEVER too far behind! 

Greetins' Fall! 

Ciao!

As youse all know...I AB SO LUTE LY love that "spooky" vibe in the air! Haha! We'll gets more into that stuff soon. 

Hey pallies...I'm not sure if the beginnin' of September is bringin' some swingin' & singin' at some jammin' cook outs or hustlin' & bustlin', movin' boxes into some college dorm room...but I do knows' thins' might get a wee bit hectic. 

Let's do this Labor Day, Dino-style...& chill out a wee bit! I'm bettin' we could ALL use a little relaxin'.  

For today's Serenade, thinks' I'm gonna ask our BESTEST pal, Dean, to start windin' this Summery season down with some COOL COOL & VERY laid back croonin'. 

"Fools Rush In' should set the Dino-mood so so PER FEC TO! Real mellow & calmin’ ,pals. 

Now, this tune has been sung many many times by many many singers, pallies. But...NO ONE & I mean friggin' NO ONE can turn it into PURE PURE tranquility likes our pal! 

So...when the grills have burned out...& everythin' is cleaned up & put away...Find yourselves some "alone" time. Just youse & Dean. Pour up a little vino & soak this one in. 

Happy Dino-Laborin', pallies! 

Ahhhh serenity.
