Cooling Down to Autumn

What a summer!
Never as brief as what I imagine an Arctic bloom to be- some day I would like to get to see that! But summer for many of us Canadians is lamentably short. This one was sweet nonetheless. I am thankful for a generous helping of time in nature, with family, friends... but also many wonderful musical moments that included a pre-natal invitation to a new member of the family, several bedside vigils for elders on their end-of-life journey, memorials, funerals, and even a wedding thrown in there for good measure!
Now it's time for projects that bring me back to building inner resources, and to making good on a long-held dream of "laying down some tracks": a CD of Harp, Voice and other offerings that have lain dormant for too long. There seems to be a critical mass of motivation arising, and perhaps more importantly, a recognition that the time has come, and the right alignment of supportive souls and resources are present!
On to the studio!
