Doing lots of reminiscing these days. I can still see myself in high school and college (in my mind). Mentally I'm the age of my children (late 40's;early 50's) which works until I (a) look in the mirror or (2) get up a...Expand for more
nd move. ;-) Have attended Lake Washington United Methodist Church now for over 30 years where I am tenor/soloist and wife Ursel who sings alto (pre-covid.) I have sung Tenor and soloed for all of these semi-professional Seattle-area choirs: Seattle Chamber Singers (under George Shangrow), Northwest Chamber Chorus, Seattle ProMusica (under Karen Thomas), and most recently in The Kirkland Choral Society (under Glenn Gregg). Singing through masks is not singing to me. Will return to choral singing when the masks. come off, During Covid I have been singing solos and as part of a quartet or six-tet online with Lake Washington United Methodist Church on Rose Hill between Kirkland and Redmond, WA
Wife Ursel and I have traveled Western Europe, Australia, New Zealand, the West Coast, Mexixo, and Hawaii -- driving, on ocean cruises, and on a river cruise from Amsterdam to Budapest.
We own Worldmark Points which allows us to stay in very nice condos in many areas. Our favorites are the Oregon Coast and Victoria, BC.
I'd love to hear from you. And if you live in the Greater Seattle area, I'd love to catch up with you over a cup of coffee!!
