Iler Smiler

Years ago I went up to Heavenly Valley, Sierra's in California/Nevada, for a skiing experience  I won't ever forget. Near the top of the ski resort you could look to the east and see Nevada and the desert and to the west California as far as the eyes could see. The best part...I made it safely down the mountain!


Lady Antebellum’s Charles Kelley will headline publishing rights organization ASCAP’s (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) inaugural Snowmass Celebrity Ski Fest charity event which will be held in the Colorado Rockies on February 21-22, 2018. Singers, songwriters and celebrities will come together to raise money for LadyAID, a philanthropic effort founded by the members of Lady Antebellum – Dave Haywood, Charles Kelley and Hillary Scott. Created in 2012, the organization garners awareness and support for children in need locally, nationally and globally, as it is a component fund of The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee. The Snowmass Celebrity Ski Fest will offer participants the opportunity to ski with some of the country’s top songwriters and attend an intimate concert by Charles. The concert will take place at a private lodge in the mountains and will open with a hit songwriters round that will include songwriter-artist Edwin McCain, songwriter-producer Chris DeStefano, singer-songwriter and star of CMT’s Nashville, Charles Esten, and more to be announced.

melting / las vegas

The Beach Boys had a song titled "The Warmth of he Sun". Seems to be the mantra in getting this snow and ice off the roads. You may want to catch a part of the Grammies this weekend on CBS. Mixed in with the hip-hop music will be Eric Church, Maren Morris and Brothers Osborne with a song dedicated to the victims of the Las Vegas massacre. On that subject of the Las Vegas tragedy, it seems like multiple groups are keeping information from the public. I've read that advance notice may have been known by some public and private groups. Hmmm?

Let it snow

The National Weather Service is talking snow for KZ Country. It's about time! This winter we haven't gotten one of those storms where the snow starts off and becomes vicious with northeast winds whipping it around. This may be our "opportunity". Here's a few thoughts:  for the home, make sure you've got enough food on hand, in case you have to hunker down, keep the shovel and salt ready for digging out; got pets?, keep them safe, keep yourself safe, know where your children are, stay warm...this will last only a couple of days; for work, make sure your you've got some food with you, in case you get stuck, have a blanket in your car, take any medicines you need with you (in case you wind up staying an'extra long time, take it in stride; for driving, make sure you've got enough gas, you've got a blanket, shovel, scraper in your vehicle. That's not a complete list, but it should help you get started. Stay tuned to KZ-100  for the la
