my houseguest

John Grimes grew up in Key West where he was Tennessee Williams' paperboy. many years later I heard him in the orchestra of Lake George Opera for a performance of "Summer and Smoke."

John is a world-class musician   currently with Boston Baroque. we've been catching up on synchronicities. which also means dealing with ghosts which is a juggle of sad & happy.

"the orchestra of Lake George Opera..."

Wow. The Adirondacks-- a huge part of my past (Saranac Lake, Tupper Lake, Lake Placid...) I spent part or all of every summer of my life there until I was about 30. I hadn't been there since then until last summer, when I returned for a family reunion. I have dozens of cousins that live in upstate NY.

Just the thought of the place warms my heart!
