This fall, Rowan and I have been invited to provide music for several Events, starting with my son's wedding at a county park near the Columbia river!!
Dalena and Josh
Family arrived the day before to help set up, and though it sprinkled in early afternoon, it cleared for the ceremony, and friends carried Rowan and the music down the hill! Josh made the arch (they'll set it up at home - and I want one for my entrance!) Dalena entered to 'You Say it Best,' and I played 'the Confluence' as they and their 4 young adult kids poured sand into a holder, signifying the joining of two families.
It was lovely to see all the friends and family who gathered to celebrate the special day!
In early October, I was asked to play for the Illuminating Hope event by a friend who was going to share her story. Henderson House provides support for victims of domestic abuse and violence. As it was market day, they hoped music would draw more to visit the plaza nearby.

We played first, setting a nurturing tone for the event. There were purple ribbons honoring the 1000 women HH served each year, and local businesses donated addiction items for fundraising.
The following day, we were invited to play for Tea hosted by the Friends of the Senior Center. Over 40 women (and one man) attended, many in delightful hats!

It was a beautiful fall day and fun event. Youth from the catering pathway class groom the high school served the attendees, and there were lots of smiles.
A friend recently inquired about harp lessons, and I brought Tullie home from storage so we can begin. Percy was intrigued

This afternoon we're harping for a wedding at the local catholic church - I'm playing 7 of the 10 pieces!
Do you love harp music?
(Or always wanted to play?)
