Winter seems to be winding down a bit, but the warmer weather has melting mountain snow consequences too.
We have local river flooding around here, although not near me.

Hey there, PRO.
I guess it’s more of a “radu” term than a southern one but you’ll learn plenty of both before it’s over with. LOL!

You’ve got that right! Think how boring it would be if everyone spoke the same way. Variety is the spice of life!
You know she’s just sitting back waiting to pounce, don’cha? :-)

Glad to hear things are back to normal. Y’all were bustling for a while.
Bummer about your computer still being out of whack. Hope it doesn’t take much longer to get it up and running again.
Things are going well enough here. Still antsy for Spring to arrive, but then I’ve been antsy since October. LOL!

Am I packing?
This is Massachusetts we’re talking about. LOL
Pub Night went great. The really young musicians think I cool because I remember the Beatles. LOL.
Everything has melted...to get ready for the REAL winter, which around here is in March.

That was a great list of songs you performed in your earlier post.
Do you have any of your stuff posted on YouTube or anywhere else?
