What a surprise it was to have Viv and Riley show up out of nowhere and ask if they could record a couple songs with us in our swimming hole!

Ummmmm????? Yes please!

What a blessing to get a private show with my toes in the creek, accompanied by my favorite people (some of which I have known since we were in grade school!)

I've often enjoyed Maurice Durufle's version of the ancient chant, Ubi Caritas.

This banjo picker has a few extra strings.
