The first phase of a journey

It was a long, wet, stressful drive from home to Newark today. At times the rain was so hard that I had trouble hearing the radio. Lots of traffic including some really slow drivers who held everybody up. Then it took 45 minutes to find the hotel because the directions were wrong. But the party this evening with a portion of the OCICBW clan made it all worth it. I'm not doing photos but others will eventually. Check Telling Secrets. I'm too tired to care at the moment but those people sure are fun to be with.

Don't know about blogging for the next two weeks. I'm off to Mondsee, Austria tomorrow for a week of singing with the Berkshire Choral Festival then a few days in Vienna and Budapest.
