SOIREE IN DEERING!

Our cats can sense a change, that Spring is not very far away. Yes, it's still cold and there's a lot of snow out there, but the cats are now spending more time on the screened porch. They know something!

I don't know whether we humans share this innate awareness, or whether it's just a case of  'enough already,' but we trot off to southern beaches and sign on to late winter cruises. Maybe in doing this, in making these brief excursions to above freezing climes, we know that not long after we're back home the grasping winter will begin serious retreating. 

Whatever.... Here in Deering there's going to be a Soiree, an evening of Joyous Noise that just might give Old Winter the shove he needs to get out of here. (what a long introduction to.....) On next Friday evening, 6 March, 7:00 pm in the Deering Community Church in Deering Center there will be music, poetry,  stories --- general lightness of spirit.

The soiree is FREE AND OPEN TO ALL but donations, which will be split between the Deering Community Church and the Hillsborough-Deering Food Pantry, will be welcomed.
