Dancing Mandolin Player and I are practicing our 17, 18 and/or 20 songs for our gig at the Arts & Crafts Festival in town in two weeks.  I think we only need 15 songs, so we are trying to decide which ones are better left at home.

We have turned my little basement office into our music studio, complete with sound system, microphones, music stands and instruments.

It works.

Our longtime music teacher, Doug, is playing along with us, something for which we are deeply grateful.

We need all the help we can get. 

And yes, we are having a good time.  Who knew we could do this?  Not us!
