I forgot how good Lou Killen is (hadn't seen him in awhile.} The Canadian song worhshop was great with The finest Kind, Arogant worms et.al. Pat Wictor's song about a wounded confederate soldier was the emotional highlight for me. Only problem-there are too many good things going on at once. |

I got to see my old pal, Sara Grey, and we had a small gathering at our campsite that consisted of the Meixners, Jeri, John Roberts, Pete and Joann Souza, Big Chuck and his pal, Sharon. I got over served again, and talked too much.so it wasn't all bad. Last, and most certainly not least were the Patons and Karen Kobela. |

Because I didn't have "favorites" as such I made a point of going to a variety of different things. I really enjoyed Les Girls, the Acadian group and Pat Wictor's workshop on Improvisation a lot. We camped onsite and I would definitely do this again next year! |
