I was looking for something different, happy and colorful for our new banner. Andrew Gioulis, of KFR Communications (see his ad to the right) came up with a perfect design, bringing in the ocean theme and some trendy colors. I think I will have a giant banner made to stretch across the entrance to Ocean Grove since I am pronouncing July to be national Blogfinger month.
And to help us celebrate our new banner, we have brought back Bebo Valdes for your dancing pleasure. (He died last year–a great Cuban musician)
BEBO VALDES with “Babalu” sending this out to MaryLou of Ocean Grove whose Dad called her “Babalu.” Below that is the DESI ARNAZ version. (Requested by Ken, commenter-in-chief.)
DESI ARNAZ version of Babalu:
Thank you for brightening my day with “Babalu”. My dad is longer in the physical realm but I’m sure smiling from above 🙂
Ken: You are right. Check out the banner post, and you will find the Desi Arnaz version.
New Banner looks fine.
A lyricless Babalu? Take it from this prior generation commenter you need the words, even if you don’t understand Spanish. Desi Arnaz was my favorite long before LUCY; he really banged out great versions with the congos. .
