(Day 25 - #DownInMexico)

*Why do song titles make me think of other songs, instead of books? Who knows? Anyway, I‘m very sure that when I was but a young gal, I sang this song in the shower all the time:
🎶 Oh, Mexico
It sounds so simple I just gotta go
The sun‘s so hot I forgot to go home
Guess I‘ll have to go now...🎶

That‘s “Mexico” by James Taylor from 1975. Wow—I‘m that old. 😂

When lonely days turn to lonely nights
You take a trip to the city lights
And take the long way home
Take the long way home

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing else to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don't come to own me
There's so many dreams I've yet to find
But you‘re so far away

Taking the afternoon off to run errands which includes a quick beer and some reading time. Life is good😀😀😀

I absolutely love, love, love this blurb from the book!!!

I am 53% into this book. I am huge James Taylor fan and very interested in this book. I am learning so much more ... the author spends a lot of time of his family, his father, and many of Taylor's friends. Who knew I would learn so much about Ike Taylor and Carole King?

25% read and enjoying it! Lots of interesting history about his ancestors and his father. I haven't reached the information about his music, Carly Simon, kids, etc. So far, so good!

partial musical shelfie, although the James Taylor books didn't quite make the picture! #musicbooks #augustphotochallenge @TheSpinecrackersBookClub 🎶🎼🎻🎷🎹🎸🎶
