LOCAL: The Gables Juice Bar

Craving something yummy and healthy for lunch? Swing by the Gables Juice Bar for a bite and enjoy freshly blended fruit smoothies or veggie juices! My personal favorites... the chicken breast melt and the picadillo (with side dressings) and the JAG and PORSHE fruit smoothies are a couple of my favorites although sometimes I create my own. When you walk into The Juice Bar its like stepping back in time, ROCK n ROLL never dies! Rock n Roll legends and iconic figures grace the walls, old school posters and photography, hanging disco balls and little men on the ceiling! Love the retro psychedelic decor!

ART: Miami Artist SARAH BALLARD

ART BASEL 
This is a series of Black & whites I titled "Left for the wolves" as always
my work focuses on a female subject. These are self portraits.

My work brings the weaknesses and strengths of femininity to life somewhere
between reality and fantasy. I try to bring a certain situation to every
photograph leaving much to the imagination in the eyes of the viewer. Death
and morbidity shroud most of my work... Yet the possibility of life dances
in the distance. The lighting, angles, balance and positions of the
character (always female) clearly exude mystery and illusion which both
captivate and intrigue a certain awkward interest. SARAH BALLARD

WRITINGS by Sandy's PAGE: Have you found your soulmate?

People search their whole lives to find the perfect person, the person who completes them. Some people live their lives alone, afraid of love, afraid to feel the pain we feel today. Some people travel lifetimes searching for the love they lost, hoping to one day reunite. Some people believe that if you love someone so much, you should let them go. Some people believe that if you've found the person you love, you should hold them tight and never let go. If what we believe is true, if what we feel is real,if what the stars reveal to us is literal...then what others believe to be fate- has brought us together. It is the human nature to over analyze and over complicate what the angels have ordained to happen as mere simplicity.  The bible says that your life is already planned and mapped for you. Buddhist believe that you come to this world to accomplish something. I believe that our souls are familiar. From the moment I laid eyes on you I knew. What all religions believe is that humans have free will. You choose. You decide. I've made my choice. I've decided. And I placed all bets on us. I believe in us. But to err is human, to love is divine. And if you chose to let go, and not look back- that's your God given right. But I want to leave this life and not come back again. My soul is tired. My soul wants peace, and my soul wants to be loved for as long as I have air in my lungs. You gave my soul and my spirit the love it needs, you gave me freedom. But you've made your choices, as have I. Maybe this life for you has a different purpose than mine. My journey is a spiritual one, and that is what I have to give and to teach. I loved you from the first moment you entered my body- you touched my soul. I have not chosen to let you go. You've made that decision for us, for the universe. " You will leave life more beautiful than you entered it, heaven will take you back and say, only one thing can make a soul complete, and that thing is Love. " I found that in you. You will never duplicate what we feel with each other, with another. You never have that again. This my friend, this, what we have, is what people look for...its what dreams and fairy tales are made of. I love you. Then, now, always.

MUSIC: ROGER WATERS - Pink Floyd's THE WALL - Nov 13 & 14, 2010

Saturday nights show was quite the spectacle, like an acid trip flashback for some people..... The visual effects were second to none. Amazing what a creative mind and top of the line technology can do... The show started off with a BANG! Gleaming lights and animations projected on the massive stage WALL. Digitally projected bricks floated into the darkness along with the removing and replacing of bricks from behind the wall, psychedelic illusions! There were animations and digital flicks of THE WALL characters disappearing into the next rendition of effects... three dimensional effects without the need for 3D glasses. Wonder what it must have been like for those on hallucinogens.... brave souls. The Bank Atlantic arena (Miami, FL) was jammed packed, SOLD OUT!, devoured by flashing lights as Roger Waters lifted us all with his overwhelmingly powerful vocals. The audience screamed "Run! Run! Run!"... Then the next series of animations and a familiar concentrated scent of cannabis in the air... ... "Hello?.... is there anybody in there?... just nod if you can hear me... is there anyone home?"... ROGER WATERS.... "relax...relax..." and so on... The audience screamed... "I..... I.... I.... have become comfortably numb.....". If a play by play song performance could be given I would certainly write about it... a true PINK FLOYD fan won't have any recollection of the order... consumed by the show, floating WALL characters and pounding sound "BOM BOM... BOM BOM..." in cue with marching hammers and aircraft bombers.... TRUE fans, you must see this! Keep a look out for the next tour. You can never go wrong with PINK FLOYD!

MUSIC IS POWER! healing tools...

Forever, a Fan.

MUSIC: TEAR DOWN THE WALL! TEAR DOWN THE WALL!!!
