It hurts when the good ones leave. It hurts more during the holidays. Kringle giveth and Kringle taketh away.  

‘Have A Good Time’ is the perfect example of how the songwriting muse can appear at any time. I’d already worked out half of the song, but during my annual summer vacation to the Adirondacks, the rest came pouring out. The missing phrase was ‘I’ve got cookies shaped like snowmen/Hot cider on the stove and some good wine’, and for whatever reason, the late summer sun on a pine tree rimmed lake was what brought it out of me. The song itself is a reminder of how meaningful it is to share our hearts and homes with the people we love, and that togetherness can heal us.
