Best tip ever

So our musical trio ThingamaJig gave its first public performance under that name today. It was the Woodstock Farmer's Market, on the Square. We were up in the bandstand gazebo and though the organizers provide a tip jar it was located where we couldn't easily see who was putting stuff into it (if any.) The two hour performance went well, and I was pleased with the responses I got for my flute playing. But the best came when Gary went through the contents of the tip jar (actually a plastic bucket) after we got home. It was a little money, which when divided up might buy an ice cream bar or a coffee for each of us. But the great thing was this note:

Neal's response (with which I can only concur) was:
"Best tip ever. I am inspired."

This is partly due to the lower participation level than what we used to see on LiveJournal before the Russians took it over. While many folks moved over to Dreamwidth, the same culture never seems to have sparked here. However, I keep trying occasionally and I welcome you and look forward to hearing from you again.

For a long time it was hard to find anyone over 25 here, and while I love younger folks, I also value people more my own age. Since the last great migration from LJ that has gotten a lot easier to find interesting new folks.

Dreamwidth also let me know your birthday is approaching. Happy birthday! The world is better with you in it <3
That's all I have time for right now. Have a wonderful day, a joyous holiday season, and know always that you are loved.
Light and laughter,

P.S. If you like, I'd love to hear from you via e-mail (SongCoyote at yahoo).
