Judy Collins

Last Saturday, Ron and I went to see Judy Collins.  We both had a great time and got to meet her backstage.  What a treat!

Choral Treasure

In the last month or two, I have taken to listening to religious choral music while I paint.  It induces a meditative state that I find calming and focusing.  Live365 is a subscription-based streaming radio station.  They have many, many options for music without advertising. 

I listen to the "Choral Treasure" station.  You can try it out for free if you want to hear what I hear.  There are just a few ads interspersed.

What a Gift!!!!!!!

Today is my birthday. I have had a wonderful few days of parties, friends, and family.

This afternoon the doorbell rang and Ron insisted I get up off the sofa and answer it. There stood Patty and Marion at my front door, and when I opened it they began singing. Patty had her yellow legal pad and was carefully reading notes from the page as she sang the harmony to Marion's melody. Oh yes, it was the tradional birthday song. I am betting that Marion hastily put the notes on the page for Patty.

Both Patty and Marion sing in Trinity's choir.

Check out the CD of lullabies that Marion made a couple of years ago. Lovely music.

What a great ending to a wonderful birthday weekend.

Thank you, Patty and Marion.
