I hope you heal fast, Tony...it's good they were able to do corrective surgery.

Winter here is always at it's worst in the latter part of January and most of February. It was -33 C (-27 F) on Monday past...brutal!

If your not into winter sports, it means spending a lot of time indoors, but that has it's benefits, as you get lots of time to practice and work on styles and arrangements.

I guess that's also why there is a high percentage of musicians (a very high number are pros) here on the island.

It's also nice to have actual four distinct seasons...weather is never boring, and often a perfect conversation starter.

Good luck with your toe...and keep playing!
