January, 2013 BDC Meeting Report

Flu notwithstanding, six healthy ladies attended the Club meeting yesterday.  First, we took a run at a two dulcimer rendition of "You Are My Sunshine".  Then Club members Pat Maden and Judith Atkins shared "Spanish Is a Loving Tongue" and "Amazing Grace" with us. And, as always, it was great to revisit familiar tunes like "Harrison Town", "Lady Mary" and "Old Molly Hare". We look forward to learning what Judith opts to challenge us with next month. Later . . .
