Today I spent the afternoon getting to know the intricacies of North St. Paul.  My assignment was to perform for a voluteer banquet at a Senior Care center.

Shouldn't be a problem right?  Just follow directions drive up to the front door, unload the harp and play for the event.

Wrong!!!

On this afternoon a huge funeral to honor a St. Paul Policeman shot in the line of duty, snarled traffic with hundreds of police cars coming from downtown St. Paul to file in parade past his former work place which was a few blocks down the street from my destination.

Everything was blocked off none of the driveways or entrances were available so I ended up driving over hill and dale parking in a distant parking lot down a steep grade and hiking with my harp to the the appointed place.

Whew! I'm  glad I brought my Renaissance Harp Gothic 31. I made it a little bit late and still managed to play the gig to the satisfaction of the Volunteer banquet planners.

This is what I'm used to doing being there when you want me to despite the odds and the difficulties I will make it happen for you.
