Make Your Own Kind of Music: A My Town Monday Post

“A painter paints pictures on canvas.  But musicians paint their pictures on silence.”  ~Leopold Stokowski

Week before last, my town, the Village of Peninsula, population 602, was filled with the sound of music: the music of 18 different musicians during Music on the Porches, the music of the train whistle of The Nickel Plate Road 2-8-4 Berkshire No. 765 steam engine during the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad’s Steam in the Valley , and the music of artists letting their spirits soar as they painted their impressions of this Valley called Cuyahoga during the Peninsula’s Third Annual Plein Air Competition.

We were lucky to host 2 sessions of live music in the Gallery. Kent, Ohio’s Crane Willow Lake, an acoustic indie folk trio, and 11 year old blues guitarists, Paul Kolbus and  Mark Ray. Take a look at some sights of the day.

As always, please feel free to leave me a comment, or a stone, (o), to let me know you’ve stopped by. And take a look at My Town Monday to see what others have to say about the places they call home.
