Thread Name: Maine House Concert Cindy Kallet &Grey Larsen
Subject: RE: Maine House Concert Cindy Kallet &Grey Larsen
Awake from my nap. Yes it was a concert to remember. Grey and Cindy so obviously enjoy performing together and their music is perfect. When the harmonies started, I had to sit up and try to remember who was in the audience, Holly always provides lovely harmonies but this was a roomful of magic. Never saw the Captain give anyone a standing ovation, Guess that says it all.
October Song and Salmon River stand out. Grey's stories of Michael Kennedy and his early experiences added a very personal side to the music.The fiddles tunes they played together were pure joy.
I love to sit back in these concerts and watch the music sink into the walls. Lots of happy people sharing.

There was more than an abundance of food. Many thanks to Jacqui and Holly for the clean-up. It was like someone had waved a magic wand and made it all go away.

Thank you for the birthday cakes, CamiSu and Holly. LOL No one knows about the tiny miniature Holly tucked in my freezer just for me. And honest - Chocolate Cake with Chocolate Icing is my favorite - NAna Sullivan used to make it for me when I was a child and it is comfort.

Who do I thank for the flowers under my side window? I looked out and saw what looked like small flowering bush so I put my shoes on and went out to investigate. Lovely red orange flowers, at least a dozen. I had to touch them twice to realize they were plastic and silk. So did someone leave them as a charming offering or is one of my neighbors missing a display? The wind was wild last night.

I did enjoy the three children who came with their parents, All eager to be part of the festivities, all comfortable in the setting, and really good company.
