The Year in Review
Today I sat down to write our family's annual Christmas letter, the one that goes out with our cards to friends and family this time of year. On a whim, I pulled up last year's missive and read through it with a mix of emotions. Some of it seemed so long ago even while I realized that I'd written it less than three months before the "normal" world I described in it would be altered forever by the worldwide pandemic. How casually I mentioned going to plays and concerts; visiting friends and welcoming others into our home; celebrating holidays, birthdays and weddings; traveling near and far.
Seeing Summer Out with Song
This Labor Day Weekend I will relish some beautiful, warm, sunny days and the fact that I don't have any plans other than chilling out in the backyard.

An Evening with The Piano Guys
Earlier this year, as my husband and I were perusing the line-up of artists scheduled to perform at our favorite outdoor concert venue here in Southern Oregon, we couldn't quite agree on who we wanted to see. Those I wanted to see Harry wasn't particularly excited about, and I wasn't that interested in a few that he liked. There were also a few that we would have liked to watch, but they coincided with times we would be out of town. I don't quite recall how we finally settled on The Piano Guys. Neither of us had heard of them before, but we must have decided that an evening of instrumental music, classical mixed with other genres, would be pleasant.
