### Hanshaw at the Market

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

Saturday April 7, 2007
11:00am — 2:00pm

Ithaca Farmers Market

The Hanshaw Trio will add our mostly Celtic touch to the opening of the market season.

I should add, weather permitting — but it’s looking like weather won’t permit. If it’s not in the 50s, we won’t be there.

Weather will not permit; we’ve canceled. Sorry, folks!

### Maternity Leave

Saturday, September 30th, 2006

Today The Hanshaw Trio played at the Farmers Market. It was a bit chilly and quite windy, but we had a good time anyway and so did the folks who stopped to listen. Edward Camacho got this photo of us:

I am now on maternity leave, somewhat indefinitely. I hope that I’ll have time and energy to get back to performing sometime in the spring. Private lessons will continue until the baby comes, and will start back up again as soon as I have the energy. I’ll also continue to ship any CD orders, but be aware that it may take me a bit longer as I won’t be checking my post office box as often.

### Hanshaw, second-to-last show

Friday, September 1st, 2006

The Hanshaw Trio performed at the Trumansburg Pourhouse last night. This was our second-to-last show for the year, and perhaps ever. It was a good time for us and the small crowd.

### First market day

Saturday, April 15th, 2006

The Ithaca Farmers Market has been going since the first weekend in April. I made my first appearance today, and was fortunate to be able to play.

There are still lots of empty booths, but soon enough the market will be full.

It was a lovely sunny day, even though a stiff wind from the lake kept me chilled, standing in the shade of the market’s pavilion.

I was able to play about three hours, which is exciting, considering the tendinitis situation. I might have even played longer, except I was cold and running out of ideas and thought it would be better not to push it just yet. After all, since the Christmas season I haven’t played longer than an hour, even practicing at home.

It was nice to be back at my favorite venue. To see the friendly crowd and some familiar faces of vendors and visitors. And the chicken curry over udon noodles was a lovely lunch for a windy day.
