Subject: RE: Mudcat (THE WORLD)Let us know where you are.
I feel pretty inadequate as a musician compared to all of you. I taught myself basics of piano when younger but never play, not that I was ever good, even with long fingers. Mom can, though, and her dad was in vaudeville from Ohio to Iowa that I am aware of. Mom does geneology, and it would be nice to someday find stories of the music the ancestors made and what they played. We do have a few stories of ancestor Francis Cooke, from Mayflower, but no mention of music. I really do enjoy the Celtic instruments and wish I had learned to play flute. So I just sing my heart out in church. I am in Indiana, where ,if you don't like the weather, be patient, it will change quickly. I live in a sparsely populated county that gets tornadoes that the nearest doppler radar can't even find; not even a hospital in the county. I really think you must be the most interesting and sincere people on the web.
