In the works

I have been receiving wonderful suggestions from some of you about places to sing in various locations around the country. I am starting to follow up on those, in the hope of doing some traveling in the coming year that will bring me closer to where you (yes, you!) are. Also looking at Québec, where my ancestors are from, and at London. I have no idea where I can sing there, but I have friends in Britain and memories to revisit. Was Solihull really one long street that ran from St. Martin's School for Girls school to the bungalow my family lived in and on to my friend Veronica's house behind which was the barn where Netta the pony was stabled? That is what I remember, and no, it doesn't seem possible, and I would love to go there to see.

Closer to home and the present, I am learning songs for some upcoming dates, writing, and reading reading reading. Summer's almost over, at least calendar summer, and even though I am not going to school, I feel a leaning toward more study. Perhaps this is the year for reading Dante... who knows?
