I was thrilled to be asked to join the elite team of mural painters in Lancaster Ontario this past September. Two large murals are now on display entitled “Life on the River,” and “Early Farming Settlers,” which is the culmination of South Glengarry Township’s Portraits of our Past project. Mural production was co-ordinated by longtime […]
The Kelly Girls had a surprise reunion show at Owen and Ollies in Dracut, MA this past week. The house was packed and the celebratory show palpable – as were the fish ‘n chips and fresh poured Guinness! They had a great run and their music will be enjoyed for years to come. Listen on Spotify, Apple […]
My 2024 solo travel adventure brought me to Portugal! I rented a house in the historic section of Albufeira, southern coast in the Algarve region. Beautiful sunshine greeted me almost everyday, along with an americano with extra hot water that I ordered at a beach cafe. These travels are all about routine, usually involving meditation, […]

There’s a fun factor – albeit some seriousness is getting the right programming – in creating a new experience and opportunity that wasn’t previously available.

And they’re back! After a two-and-a-half year ‘rest’, The Kelly Girls packed up their gear and headed to Lime Rock, Connecticut to entertain at the 99th Round Hill Highland Games. It was a warm one, but the breeze on the upper grove, under the shady pines made for the most pleasant of afternoons. It was […]

Hosted by Glengarry Living Archives and Williamstown Historical Society, I was invited to be the feature performer for a concert to raise money for CHEO. Anyone who lives in Eastern Ontario knows the important service this Hospital plays to the health and well-being of so many. After such a long stretch of having no performances, […]
