Najee Harris, Antioch High School Football Player To Be Drafted Tonight!

There is a nice story on Antioch High School running back Najee Harris (written by Luke Johnson) in the Antioch Herald. I'm so grateful to Antioch High School principal Louie Rocha for the heads up he gave me on this athlete a few years ago. I saw most of Najee's games during his junior and senior high school years. It was a lot of fun to go to a packed event and see your alma mater have so much success. I also saw many Alabama games on TV. Najee and I spoke briefly at one of the 19th Hole Casino and Sports Bar Crab Feed fundraisers when Najee stopped serving us crab and graciously posed for a few photos for me. He's a fine young man. I wish him nothing but success!

The Weather Is Perfect For A Dine Out. It's been a good week, people are being vaccinated and restaurants are opening for inside dining. The weather is warming. For those of us who have learned to love patio dining, the weather is perfect and we can have live music! It's mostly afternoon and early evening time slots (perfect for this early to bed early to rise, guy). It's been a while since I did my last honky-tonk. Please, continue to get vaccinated, wear your masks and practice social distancing. We are on the right path.

It's been a good week, we're still in the orange tier, I received my first shot, and live music is returning. It's acoustic, and on patios, but it's still live music and I like it! Most of the music is at dinner time and in the afternoons so you can be home early. Please, continue to get vaccinated, wear your masks and practice social distancing. We are on the right path.

Social Distancing Is Way Better Than Closed. Orange tier today, yellow tier coming soon. As you can see in today's SPOTLIGHT we have more entertainment options available to us. Continue to get vaccinated, wear your masks and practice social distancing. We are on the right path.

Easter Dining Guide and Vaccine Finder and Fresh Asparagus are in!

Let live entertainment thrive all over Contra Costa this year. Another early bloomer this year is the Greenery in Walnut Creek. It's been quite a while since I've been here. Last time I visited they were wrapping up the remodel of this hidden gem down a quiet road off a busy road. Looking forward to visiting this place again soon now that Spring has sprung. Cheers!

Daylight savings time is here. Spring begins Saturday. Enjoyed a night out with friends this week at a local restaurant. Saw a baseball game. Restaurants have inside dining and entertainment. It's not normal but it's close it's the beginning of the new normal.
