    Saturday TunesSince Spring has finally arrived in most of the country, I don’t mind bragging a little. We’re going to have a fantastic weekend! With tempuraturs in the mid to upper 70s, our family is drawn to the beach like a mosquito to a bug zapper. Right now, Kristen is meeting some of my co-workers for a hike up Cowles Mountain. Later this morning we’ll all take Stoney to the beach for his weekly ocean therepy. Tommorow we’re headed to the beach after church to resume our Sunday beach tradition after a long break for Winter. Then on Monday night our community group has decided to meet down in Ocean Beach for a bonfire on the beach.

    In the meantime, the kids are watching cartoons. Water is boiling for coffee and I am settling in to relax a bit. Here are the next 10 tunes I’m listening to. As always, no cheating and my ratings are included.

    Just another lazy Saturday in McLane land. Other than taking Stoney over to dog beach to let him sniff butts and chase tennis balls, I don’t have plans for today. It’s kind of cold and wet here, so it’s not as if we’ll want to do much else.

    Just like a typical Saturday morning, I’m getting it started with some Java (last of the Starbucks Christmas blend) and some headphone time. Here are the next 10 songs playing on my ipod. As always, totally random and my rating is included.

    #1 Life is a Highway by Rascall Flatts ****

    #2 Tell Me Something Good by P!nk ****

    #3 God of this City by Chris Tomlin ****

    #4 Head Over Heel by Sandra McCracken ***

    #5 Georgia on my Mind by Ray Charles ****

    #6 Hard Sun by Eddie Vedder *****

    #7 Insane in the Brain by Cypress Hill *****

    #8 Here With You by 3 Doors Down *****

    #9 Obsession by Starfield ****

    #10 Seven Bridges Road by The Eagles ****

    Bonus! My buddy and worship leader at Stoneridge in Romeo, Jimmy Savage, has a song on iTunes. It’s a single off his upcoming album. I really like it, its called “Tonight.”

    I am far from chilled out. This is the first day of my winter break. There’s plenty to do. Starting Christmas shopping would be a good start. In a couple of hours we are going to go look at a new place to rent. We’re just starting to think about this as our current place is too small. Kristen and I are going to sit down and hammer out ideas for Beyond the Zoo. (launching January 1st, ahhh!) I have a couple lingering work projects that I need to take care of. I really want to get some reading done. Yeah, lots of other things to do.

    Anyway, I’m taking a little timeout right now. Cleansing breath in. All that jazz. So here are the next 10 tunes flowing through my cranium. As always, this is a completely random shuffle. No cheating, my rating is included.

    #1 A Distant Episode by Till Bronner ****

    #2 Anthem for American Teenagers by Jon McLaughlin ****
