Wednesday, August 8, 2018

In attendance were Zenith, Judy, Barry, Marge, Cathie, and Verna.  

We six strummers chose the following songs:  Blue Skies with special attention to  the new-to-us intro strum pattern (we played this song as our opening song and again at halftime to reinforce strumming pattern), Daydream Believer, Let Me Be There, Angeline the Baker, Black Velvet Band, 500 Miles, Cottonfields, Wildflowers, Manitoba, Rox in the Box, Red Wing, Puff the Magic Dragon, Leaning On the Everlasting Arms, Amazing Grace (Cathie suggests that we add the A minor chord for an extra richness to chord progressions), Passing Through, Put Your Hand in the Hand, Silver Wings, He’ll Have to Go, Workin’ Man, and our signature set-ending song. 

One delightful bit of news:  Zenith has become a Grandmother! 

One curious tidbit:  Of the six strummers present, no one’s name started with “L” this evening.

One important announcement:  Next Wednesday, August 15, 2018, we would like to meet on Marge’s deck.  GPAC has a board meeting that evening.  Marge Warkentin has invited us all to her deck (address will be emailed).  She will post a sign at the GPAC door.  See you at Marge’s at 7 pm.  

Till then, Verna

Happily, I will be back for this. I hear it is hot and hazy there. Hopefully you are staying cool.  And, no "L's" in attendance at last week's strum? That may be a first since I started anyway. :) I hope our regulars, Louise, Lana, Lorna, Lynn, Lori and Linda didn't defect and start their own group or something. The L6 Express has a nice ring to it if they did though. :)
