Today we have the return of my friend Gregg Rolie former Singer Songwriter and Keyboard player for Journey and Santana. Gregg stops by today to talk all about what it was like to reunite with Journey last week in Austin Texas on their 50th anniversary tour. There was a lot of talk over the last 3 months about who from the original line up might show up on the 50th anniversary tour and there was strong rumors that Gregg may even join the tour. Sit down and enjoy my conversation with Gregg and hear how his involvement came to happen. Thanks for tuning in. Join my patreon for bonus episodes and live zooms. &nbsp; All tour dates and merchandise available on my website&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

When I climb aboard after scraping Habibi’s hull – see you, barnacles! – what to my wondering eyes does appear? A small squat military vessel a few hundred feet off my port bow.
 
I sit at the rail to catch my breath, and notice that the ten fatigued and armed men on board are not looking at me — they are facing the open sea, west. Stories about cartels adrenalize my veins. Lately, gunshots echo off the northwest hills mornings and evenings – is it related?

The Mexican Navy eventually speeds westward to a big beat up ship anchored for months near Playa Manzanilla. They face it, bow to bow, and halt awhile. No gunfire. Instead, finally, they cruise toward the marina. I can eat breakfast.

Before Habibi (B.H.) I saw many Mexican military men in armored trucks on the highways of La Baja. They are usually young and skinny, and at road blocks I’d sometimes share the tacos I was eating, or the juice I was swigging, always rewarded with a ¡Gracias! and flashy white grin. After a group of them caught me resting in the 4Runner (see “Napping Near the Military“ at elizabethshe.com), I began to see them as simply boys in costume. Sometimes scared boys in costume, which can be dangerous, so I’m careful.

Paddling home one evening, a ray leaps out of the water off Audrey’s port bow. I’ve been wary of rays since one sliced open my toe in California, but this one startles a laugh out of me. Spotted.

Suddenly a canned Steve Perry chants, "Don’t. Stop. Believin’"  from a nearby party boat and I laugh again. We are strange creatures indeed. All of us.

May Day
