WAY back before we retired, while we still lived in Milton, Ontario, Ted and I hosted 7 seasons of house concerts. The Canadian songwriter we hosted in April 2009 (coincidentally right on my birthday that year) was the incredibly talented Yael Wand, whose song “Come Spring” is second only to The Beatles’ “Here Comes The Sun” on my first day of spring playlist.

That song always inspires me, and in this instance it has inspired me to look back at our house concert years and add that story to our blog. Especially this past 12 months, without being able to attend live music events, those incredibly fun and enriching years have often been on my mind.
