Is the snow coming?

I am letting go of my wordpress website  wwwtobineckian.com/  

Where has all the snow gone this Winter?  There is talk of snow coming tonight and tomorrow.  I will have to ride my bike in it home from the Port Tavern after a three hour fiddle session.

On the fiddle and song list is now:


this weds:highball
glass of beer -the merry harriers 

tobins jig,  wall of lizcarroll into macs jig

maudabawn into lafferties

bach intro - little beggar boy, gravel walk to grannies.

battering ram, 6 penny into slieve russel

green groves of erin into into tam lin

summertime is coming trees are sweeting blooming wild mt thyme grows among the blooming heather.
the old man looks out to the island.....

Saturday just afternoon

I am the happiest I have ever been lying in my studio day bed with a dog on each side, the sun streaming in as I read about. Joan Mitchell, abstract expressionist painter.   The pecan pie in a cooling oven,  tuscan white bean soup stove top.  There is a new white clean canvas to my left and images to work with on my camera.
