A few samples from the slideshow of places we have traveled before going into Death Valley of fall 2013. Mostly nature shots mixed with a few of me and we.

****awesome show filled with beautiful soothing music and good songs of high caliber... enjoy the show..

[many many many favs contained within, but, I must say one of my favorite versions of "Potter's Field" is on the setlist in this show****


Also, I would like to add that their music is very healing and there is nothing like a live show . I have met the coolest kindest folks of all ages at their shows....I just can't describe it....nothing like it....

I know there are times when all seems hopeless and doomed.But I have learned that it is not so. It is a state of mind. No one ever said life would be easy. No one ever gives you instructions on parenting in a challenging world. And as a parent, I have never given up on my children and the challenge at hand, as difficult as it has been and will continue to be. I am there for them. Robbie is now 23, Melissa 26 and David 31.I have 8 grandchildren now from my two sons.Melissa is content to be a fabulous aunt and sister and is certainly,without a doubt,a blessing to me as a LOVING SWEET AND LOYAL daughter.We are all struggling together and independently as a family clan.My prayers have been recently answered especially concerning a rift that developed with my oldest son.The rift is over(resolved) and all of my family is now doing better than ever.Robbie is closer to his sister,though and recently visited her in our wonderful Carolina mountains. We love North Carolina's natural beauty.So I have a few pics to share of them at Moore Cove Falls and Looking Glass Falls and some at Appalachian Mountain Ski Resort with Melissa and Robbie and some of their friends(which are also the children of my former colleagues :)from my former teaching career).

Lyrics:





"All That's Dead May Live Again"



We light our candles and join hand in hand

Open our hearts that we'll understand

Come together family and friends

That all that's dead may live again



Can we bury the hatchet and open our doors

Forgive what we can and end these sad wars?

Pick up our shovels and close the poles in

That all that's dead might live again



The blood of our anger, the curse of our field

Once at a distance now has drawn near

All that we've built up is dust on the ground

A circle of sorrow comes round



We light up our candles and kindle our hope

And pray those that have faith, these horrors can cope

We come together family and friends

That all that's dead might live again
