Read the first chapter Create your own banner at mybannermaker.com!
When I graduated from college, I moved from Ohio to California on my bicycle. That mythical journey set me up for the rest of my life. I discovered that my limitations were in exact proportion to my imagination. And so, I'm on to the next evolution- from my little red bike, to the little red bus. I wrote a novel and soundtrack about that bike adventure, published it, bought a 1970 VW Bus where I'm living and touring to spread the possibilities of a life without barriers. If you want me to cruise by and play for you - by all means, drop me a line! I hope my happy ramblings bring me to a town near you. Palka 4 President! p.s. ~~~ If you dig on what I'm doing, please add me as a friend. I'd love to hear from you.

Today I would like to let you know about two print magazines in Germany I'm writing for.

"Living Line Dance", reporting about line dance and country music, and "Folk Magazine", reporting about folk and country music. The magazines are high respected in Europe. They offer you a good chance to publicize yourself in Europe and Germany.

For more information, please contact me at MySpace or send email to Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de with the headline "Advertise at Living Line Dance and Folk Magazine".

Warm regards

Oh the stories I have from Monday!!!! And yes I did have an incredible time. Stood in que in the wind and cold for 8 1/2 hours, then stood another 3 hours inside, danced for 2 hours all while in cowboy boots and no nourishment but 2 pieces of toast and a bottle of diet coke at 8am, midnight I was ready to fall over.


Hows the insomnia?

Oh BTW, a friend called you a 'little cutie', lol...and I was sharing the Palka message with a 70 year old at a Gary Allan concert 2 weeks ago. She was going to check you out.
