It's on my bucket list to get to a hymn sing hosted by the Greater Vision Gospel Quartet. But most of them are in the South, and I need to save my travel money for hikes and the flower show. So I'm happy to attend one right here. Not as many people (the Greater Vision ones pack out huge churches), but still good.
A local quartet named the Shoreliners has not been singing together for a while. I know one of the members has had health issues. No one is getting younger, eh? But they did two numbers, one of which is a favorite "Life is Like a Mountain Railway."
The leader took requests from the audience for an hour. Fastest hour that's ever gone by! I could have stayed, and I think my voice might have lasted for maybe one more hour.
This was followed by enough snacks to feed about 1000 people!
They are thinking of doing another in February with a soup dinner and more publicity. I hope so! If you want a bit more of my personal feelings about this activity follow the link below.
It was drizzly-rainy all day. I worked outside a few minutes anyway. Edited, wrote Chapter 34 in Vacation from DMS, 863 words.

Sounds like a wonderful evening. That sure is a lot of snacks on that table. A soup dinner sounds good.
Ann- I think the soup would be a big hit on a dark chilly evening
Lulu: "Mmmm, cookies ..."
