I am delighted to be going this year. In the past, It seems I've only met, talked with, or heard sing, a fraction of the Mudcat folks attending whose posts I enjoy here. Those I have met, I hope to see again. A few I've known from before joining Mudcat, but so many more are screen names, without knowledge of what their name tag will read.

I hope new faces will make themselves known. I will be the large, limping, long-haired lady who tends to wear bright colors: lots of turquoise and magenta. I come equipped with an Autoharp & Anglo concertina with DeKalb stickers on the cases. Judy & Dennis Cook can pick me out of a lineup.

My name is Joanne, coming from Cleveland.
