An actual In-person sing!

Today we went to Holton Memorial Home for a live, in-person, sing in their activity room where we had a small audience of about a dozen residents and a few staff people. Mary Cay Brass led and there were about 8-9 of us singers. We sounded a little ragged from lack of regular experience singing together, but I don't think anyone minded. We sang with masks, but the residents were unmasked. It was fun singing again. We sang for about a half-hour. Among our songs: New Jerusalem, I'll Fly Away, We'll Camp A Little While, Africa, What a Wonderful World, How Could Anyone Ever Tell You? And some "singalong" songs like Swing Low, Sweet, Chariot, and You Are My Sunshine.

...and our audience****************************** Yesterday, we drove to Shutesbury for supper with Katie & Savanna, and stayed late to watch UNC play Virginia in the ACC Tournament, which was on ESPN. UNC totally flummoxed Virginia. Virginia scored only 13 points in the entire first half! That was the lowest first-half score in the entire history of the ACC! The final score was UNC 63- VA-43. UNC plays Virginia Tech tonight in the semi-finals. I will be able to listen on the radio app on my phone. It would be fun to drive down to K&S's (which we could do) and see the game, but we filled the tank on the car today and it cost $65! Gas is $4.39 a gallon! So we'll stay home. If UNC wins tonight, they could meet Duke again in the championship game tomorrow evening. Duke is playing Miami as I write and they are ahead by 7 points. It was tied at the half. If UNC/Duke play again tomorrow that will be some game after UNC's upset win over Duke in the final game of the regular season last Saturday. We probably would watch that at the Bergh's. So this is basketball season, and of course "March Madness" starts next week. Who knows how UNC will do in that tournament, but it could be fun!
