My thoughts are taking better shape on this now. The best time seems to be the first half of April 2006 leading up to and possibly just past Easter. Good Friday in 2006 is 14th April. I'm also thinking more about the geography of the trip, so probably starting south and working north would be the best bet. So within those perameters, I would welcome any enquiries about events/bookings/organisers in Virginia - West Virginia - Maryland - Delaware - Pennsylvania - New York State - New Jersey. My 6th January posting will tell you what you would get. Grateful for any help that Mudcatters can give me. Many thanks.

PS I will be in Washington DC this July and will be doing a song evening there.
