Lucky me, having a chance to travel a bit, thanks to a friend who wanted the company. And unlucky me now, back in the cold...
As I sit here in my longjohns and my skipants - indoors! - I fondly remember the warm sun
(actually only one day of it, during a most nasty and mean-to-me cold front, which lasted the whole of my short stay).
And I have a couple of photos to prove that the sun did exist for a while:

oh, the memories. snow today in toronto! |
|
it's a long, long way away now |
|
but if i really use my imagination, i can be there again.
and after Florida, I zipped over to have a couple of days in New Orleans, first time ever. It was freezing there, but still good to see that great city, and to sample the barbecued shrimp. some pics:

Me with horsie in front of Jackson Square and the famous statue: |
Me and the Mighty Mississippi
One of the jazz clubs on Bourbon Street
and then I had the ill-fated trip home. Don't ever fly on US Airways, folks. Plane delayed three hours in some god-forsaken place in the states. ( a stop on the route). Back in Toronto after 1am. Thank god for the all-night Bloor bus running straight from the airport.
Last week had a great evening in Minden, Ontario at the township's gala for community volunteers. Played some music, talked to folks, but forgot my camera, so have to wait for the disposable processing.
And in the meantime, got some recording to do, in prep for CD #9, which will be released next July, 2015. Big birthday bash for myself at the same time. All donations gratefully received. |
