~~~ WELL ANOTHER 'FIRST' FOR ME!



Let me explain....Last night Saturday the first day of Spring it was snowing off and on all day it melted before it hit the ground, oops, I digress....



I went to a concert in support of Haiti which was held in a small village called Lucknow. On the way I went through two small places called Nile and Belfast. You can almost hear me singing " Around the World in 20 Miles"!

Gee, I really must get focused and stop wandering from my topic.....



Back to the concert....

It was set up by a young music teacher sharing the accomplishments of his students with the community. Along with the kids was the Howling Dog Jazz Band from Kincardine. All of this was performed in the Presbyterian Church. The talent of the youngsters was fantastic in fact one of the students pulled off a great Leonard Cohen number and the music teacher did a remarkable rendition of a classic Sinatra piece.



I was in Heaven.....I sat at the end of the evening shaking my head thinking how wonderful life is that here I was in a Presbyterian Church on a Saturday night listening to music done by Cohen, Sinatra and the Jazz Band playing "When The Saints Go Marching In".......It just doesn't get any better than this!



Till next time.......
