loy@foothill.net — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 16:54:50 +0100

Bouncing around Old Town Auburn today was pleased to learn about all the changes taking place starting with the Gold Rush Mall where I learned Mimi of The Silver Store will soon take the best location in the front of the mall; congrats to Mimi who has waited well over a decade for this opp. Mahogany Gail moves to Tea Thyme up Sacramento Street as TT is now out of business. Roseanne has opened a boutique in the back of the mall next to the veteran Sharon Stanley of& [...]

The AM 950 KAHI Connections Program was incredible. Sid Dakota is an amazing folk/country music artist that plays locally. On the Golf Connection, Loyce had on Golfer George Kazeszki and Golfer/Publisher of the Foresthill Messenger Jim Lindsau. Over at Courthouse Coffee for the Round Table Discussion featured: George Kazeszki, Barry Stigers of Barry in The Morning on AM 950 KAHI, Diana Farr Sales Manager of The Ridge Golf Course, Loyce host of AM 95 [...]

loy@foothill.net — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 17:59:27 +0100

Looking forward to Dakota Sid guesting tomorrow, Thursday, on KAHI CONNECTIONS. Sid "grabs the audience in the gut" says Bill Varbie of the Medford Mail Tribune so we shall see. At 9:30am Jim Linsdau, Publisher of the Foresthill Messenger and fellow golfer George Kazezski guest on THE GOLF CONNECTION; and at 10am I head over to Courthouse Coffee to enjoy the post-program connections where Barry Stigers, Liz Pope and Dina Farr usually drop in.

CRANKING UP THE MIRTH METER

loy@foothill.net — Thu, 13 Mar 2008 19:08:51 +0100

So enjoyed the experience today: Hosted Zoo-Keeper/musician Gary Bowman at KAHI where we cranked up the mirth meter by playing Bowman's new CD with animal sounds/theme. Bowman also shared his interesting background and talked about meeting Jane Goodall. On the golf program I chatted with Shawn Kelly, pro/instruction at The Ridge, about the short game and Kelly gave his opinions on golf etiquette. After the programs, we all headed over to Courthouse Coffee and joined T [...]

Being a non-joiner, I am pleased with the turn-out at our Round Table group at Courthouse Coffee in Old Town, meeting Thursdays at 10am after the CONNECTIONS program on 950AM KAHI. On Thursday I will host entertaining musician/singer Clod Headgate at 9am followed at 9:30am by local Golf Vixen Cirbie Sheppard who will talk about her media ties with the Golf Channel.

loy@foothill.net — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 17:57:31 +0100

Experienced a joyous day Thursday with guest Cheri Murphy and her rich jazzy singing on KAHI CONNECTIONS and re-connected with Carol/Greg French who guested on THE GOLF CONNECTION. Post-show, we all headed over to Courthouse Coffee for coffee/chat and connected with Cirby the Golf Vixen who connected with golfer Spencer; and were joined by Big Bad Barry who chatted up Cheri Murphy.

MAXIMIZING THE MIRTH

loy@foothill.net — Sun, 10 Feb 2008 09:42:09 +0100

Determined to hold my own against the quirky forces which seems to be shifting the collective consciousness. Pleased with my choices in Auburn, I've been connecting with pals Spencer and Donna at The Ridge where divine splendor awaits. This week on KAHI CONNECTIONS, "the legend" jazz singer Cheri Murphy drops by to entertain and connect with our community at The Round Table at Courthouse Coffee. This morning I head out to Downtown Auburn to enjoy a tasty [...]

STAGING IN AUBURN

loy@foothill.net — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 09:17:56 +0100

Was it Shakespear that said "All the world's a stage"? I choose to bring colorful characters to my Auburn radio stage and this coming Thursday I will host actor Perry King who has starred in Lords of The Flatbush and Slaughterhouse Five and scored in Riptide on televison. King is a unpretentious, humble individual and it will be good to re-connect with him after two years since he last guested on KAHI. My guests are local and King is just that in that his daughter [...]

MONDAZE

loy@foothill.net — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:33:41 +0100

Mondays can be challenging after a lazy Sunday; but the bounce factor worked today as I discovered a new store on Highway 49 in the Dry Creek Plaza: The Clothing Rack offers gently used clothing/accessories with designer labels for the family and Husband Jack scored with difficult-to-find rugby shirts. A fan of traditional/vintage sportswear, I'll return for another search as The Clothing Rack is on my circuit traveling home. I finally made it out to [...]

ON THE OTHER SIDE

loy@foothill.net — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 08:52:47 +0100

As a director/producer I love the process of controlling the action and being solely responsible for the outcome of the program and as a photographer, I appreciated being behind the camera. So, when golf pro/instructor Carol French suggested my being on video, I felt resistance and was less than thrilled with the idea. However, the process--which took place at The Ridge range--was less than painful and was actually a learning process in that the video allow [...]

WEB MAGIC

loy@foothill.net — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 08:08:24 +0100

Anybody that knows me or has me talk on radio knows that I love good websites and I would like to share a few local ones: First, I just received a newsletter from Jerry Rogers, who cranks out the website for The Ridge Golf Course. Rogers does a good job on this dynamic website that covers the range from the restaurant food to the golf course and can be accessed at www.ridgeGC.com. Those members who want to know more about KAHI radio are advised to reference www.kahi.com w [...]

Thursdays come quickly--as all days do--and passed another fun radio morning on KAHI talking to Buzz-man aka Craig Graham who filled the community in on what's happening here at The Buzz. Andrew Downey co-hosted and we chatted up The Ridge Super Steve Fackler while Velvet, The Ridge golf dog, who scatters the geese, watched us from across the street.

HAPPY ENDINGS

loy@foothill.net — Tue, 30 Oct 2007 11:15:57 +0100

Enjoyed the splendid links at The Ridge yesterday as Andrew Downey and I basked in the beauty of the fall day. Even the thunder and rainfall failed to dampen our spirits as we followed the bouncing ball and finished nine holes with smiles on our faces.

Webmaster Craig Graham guests for the first time on the 9am s [...]

Hosted weather historian/photographer Mark McLaughlin today on my KAHI CONNECTIONS program and was joined by co-host/history buff/chiropractor Andrew Downey. McLaughlin researches his books at length and has an interesting website at www.micmacmedia.com where his various books can be reviewed. Golf segment guest Spencer Strand joined me and McLaughlin for networking at Courthouse Coffee where Mark sold a few of his books; Spencer talked about his business; and we enjoyed [...]

MEDIA WITH MIRTH

loy@foothill.net — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 16:28:00 +0100

Now in my sixth year of hosting on KAHI, I have at long last found my niche: Hosting colorful peeps from the community and making the connection. Was successful today, connecting with Andrew Downey as co-host, bringing his own brand of enthusiasm, and musician David Liebergot. Was pleased on THE GOLF CONNECTION to host The Ridge golf pro/instructor Shawn Kelly who enjoys his work and has a solid rep as a good teacher. Enjoyed playing nine holes [...]

Oh, my: What a gloriously splendid day we were gifted with this Sunday. Met Bed 'n Biscuit Owner Cynthia McCoy at Raspberry Hill golf course for a round and how we basked in the glory of the day--taking under two hours to play nine holes, parring two holes, and working off calories to boot, as we walked the entire course and reveled in the beauty of nature at her very best.

GRAPE DAZE

loy@foothill.net — Sat, 13 Oct 2007 18:20:03 +0100

Bounced over to Court House Haven on a splendid Fall day, partook of the Truman Chipolte sassy turkey sandwich, chatted with Gary, owner of Carpe Vino who was showcasing tasty goat-cheese pastry from his eatery along with a local winery for the Wine Fest. Walked down Lincoln and found myself enjoying the variety of art/crafts/jewelry at the Old Town Gallery where a solid crowd gathered to taste the grape. Headed out to The Ridge to swing big under a cloudless sky and a [...]

Friday is golf time at Black Oak Golf Course with pal Donna Arz. We have a standing tee-time for 11am and are usually finished around 1:15am and after this enjoyable nine holes, I head home to regroup and ready myself for my therapeutic session with body mechanic supreme Gabrielle Pullen who smooths out the kinks. Did I mention that I live less than five miles from Black Oak? I do remember to count my blessings.

10 things I like best about Auburn - what are yours?

sherri@sherrimeyer.com — Wed, 16 May 2007 09:19:06 +0100

I just returned from a wonderful trip to Cabo San Lucas. But, coming home to Auburn was just as wonderful! I live in what I believe to be one of the best places on earth. I live where I used to travel to before moving here 20 years ago. And to this day, this is still one of my favorite travel destinations. But, only now it's in my own backyard!

Although there are a few things I don't like about living here (rattlesnakes, cougars, ticks, mosquitoes, wildfire danger), th [...]
