The coolest thing just happened to Gale and I. We went to scope out a farmer's market in Burlington, Wi on the way home from work today. We're thinking of selling Gale's herb boxes there. It's a new venture for us.

While walking through the outdoor market we spot six young ladies from a local Baptist church playing violins. As we got closer the song they were playing came to an end. I asked if they knew the Ashokan Farewell. One of them said "I think so". Then three of them started to play it. It was beautiful.

Now, everyone stop what they're doing and go to You Tube so you can listen to the Jay Unger & Molly Madison Family Band play the Ashokan Farewell.

That was totally worth stopping everything and listening to.  Very moving.
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)

Ditto. It made me cry! I love violin music. I played it in 5th and 6th grade and kick myself a lot now because I quit then.
Happy Aquariuming,
