I hope we can get down there -- and maybe have an opportunity to raise the rafters in son, too -- sometime before ice out.

(Remember, I'm in total denial about winter -- other than getting depressed about the days still shortening. Ach! (That's the German in me coming out.)

All I can say is you Gloucester girls (combs or otherwise) and guys are helping MY head a lot!!In the bleak midwinter, we need ALL the help we can get! And music does it best!

I am SOOOOOOOOO glad Gloucester and Portsmouth have made contact. Surely we have more in common that we each have with the rest of our states (or commonweaths). And music is the tie that binds!
