  Perhaps, maybe with some luck and good will from some god out there who cares a little, I might find myself restoring, cleaning, fixin' and whatever else needs to be done to bronze sculptures that have felt the cold fingers of neglect brush their not-so-shiny surfaces in this grand city of mine (that city being Toronto). Hopefully it comes through. I could happily wander around for the summer cleaning and repairing outdoor works, looking pretty hip as I pull up in a pick-up truck and cherry picker, hop out with my safety vest and hard hat, and then climb up and around some bronze piece.
As for the piping, there's been a lot of practice chanter work, and I feel that I am starting to get my head and my fingers wrapped around the new strathspey/reel set. Also have The Trees of North Uist (a lovely 6/8) coming along just fine, and a couple of funky hornpipes that my friend Dave wrote are shaping up as well. But it has also been raining pretty much all the time lately, so the piping in the park has slowed to a crawl.
No weddings yet this year; just had an anniversary gig cancelled... Not much going on. Good thing I didn't invest in that pager. But we might have a new tenor drummer for the band's outing to Hamilton. That would be good, seeing as we got shafted for not having tenors in Georgetown.
