Hope you all had a safe and happy Samhain and that you have found a source of light and warmth as the winter closes in. Here in Vancouver, we have been lulled into a false sense of temperate-temperature because of our lengthy and BEA-YEW-TI-FUL summer, which lasted right up until the middle of October. The days are definitely nippy now, though, and we are going-to and coming-from work in the dark.
And the best soundtrack for those crisp days is, of course, an hour of fine Celtic music. I speak of our Celt in a Twist podcast, available on our podcast page and the iTunes store.Or tune in to AM1470 Sunday, November 8, at 4 pm, (Metro Vancouver area) to hear the show on the radio!
