    Taking the Long Route Home

    Its somewhere in 1973 in a dark little coffee house, cellar or empty store front. Theres asmall clutch of people sitting around drinking coffee; the air is dense with smoke and theresgreat music going down. Usually its just one or two performers up there with guitars doingsome singing and picking. Its a chance to spend an amazing evening listening to blues,country, bluegrass or folk performed by artists like Ritchie Havens, Doc Watson or HoytAxton. Looking back those seemed like the very best times.

    Thanks to a new movement those times arent over and gone. Theyre being revived with asmall but brilliant idea by a non-profit group called Home Routes. World class musicians,known and unknown, perform complete concerts in the comfortable intimacy of private

    homes or other non-traditional spaces. Yes, you too can host your own concert for yourfriends and family. A small group is the ideal way to experience really good music withpersonable musicians. If youve ever spent an evening in your kitchen with a few friendslistening to a couple of guys play blue grass into the wee hours you know what happiness is.Home Routes brings that kind of relaxed and heartfelt enjoyment back again.

    The idea of circuits of traveling informal musicians is a master stroke of creative thinking. Itputs good performers out on the road where they can play their music and sing their songs towelcoming audiences. They get their room, board and small fees. They sell their CDs. But,mostly they get to travel, meet people and have their music heard without the struggles andpressure of the industrial music industry. They have time to play and write and be warmlyaccepted at each stop along the way.

    On Saturday evening a small group had the opportunity to experience the Home Routes con-

    cept in Eastend for the first time. David Ross MacDonald gave a terrific performance ofguitar pieces, both vocal and instrumental. It was personal and very rewarding for everyoneinvolved. David is a Home Routes touring veteran. He was an Australian geologist whoneeded a change from company life. He went to jazz college and became a professionaldrummer and then segued into guitar. We met him as he came kicking down the dusty roadinto Eastend with his old and crazed 1935 Gibson. That guitar alone would stop you dead inyour tracks. David gave us a wonderful evening, great music and good stories. It was a sim-ple evening and everyone loved it. He offered his CDs at bargain prices promising hoursmore of enjoyable music. He was playing real good for nearly free.

    Home Routes offers 8 circuits of traveling performers across Canada. You dont need muchmore than a large room or two and a group of 25 to 40 people. Some groups are smaller thanthat. There are 6 performances in a season, currently October through April, 2011. Its amarvellous way to bring fresh talent to small towns and increase their popularity. Its the

    best way to have an unusual and rewarding evening with friends. So, if youre tired of bigconcert venues, huge crowds and whacking prices take a good look at this. For more infor-mation see: www.HomeRoutes.ca Its 1973 again but its smoke-free this time around.

    Many thanks to Laurie Reynolds for organizing this fine evening. JK

    Art Show at Wolf WillowHealth Centre

    On September 30th AGES, in conjunc-tion with the Wolf Willow Health Centre,presented an art show of drawings, paint-ings, carvings and glass jewellery createdby local artists. Marilyn Elhard and TreaJensen organized the displays along witha wine and cheese table.

    The paintings/drawings comprised workof water colour, acrylic, oil and pen andink. The show was rich with talent and

    no less interesting for being small. Indeed, the small venue enhanced the feel-ing of comfort and familiarity for bothartists and attendees. The Wolf Willowresidents enjoyed the show immenselyand had the opportunity for long discus-sions with the artists. Duane Bristowscarvings were especially attractive be-cause he encouraged people to touchthem and feel their texture.

    Among the surprise displays were beauti-ful oil painting done by Doreen Buhr, aresident of Wolf Willow. We all look

    forward to another art show in the springof 2011. Many thanks to Marilyn & Trea.

    Migrating Geese

    As each goose flaps its wings it provides anup lift for the geese that follow. By flying inV-formation the whole flock adds 71% extradistance to the flying range. When a goosefalls out of formation it suddenly feels thedrag and resistance of flying alone. It quicklymoves back to take advantage of the liftingpower of the birds in front. When a goosetires of flying up front it falls back into for-mation and another goose flies to the pointposition. Flying geese honk to encourageeach other and those flying up front to keep

    up their speed. (Lessons of the Geese)A flock of wild geese had settled to rest on apond. One of the flock was captured by agardener, who clipped its wings before re-leasing it. When the geese started to resumetheir flight, this one tried frantically, butvainly, to lift itself into the air. The others,observing his struggles, flew about in obvi-ous efforts to encourage him; but it was nouse.

    Thereupon, the entire flock settled back onthe pond and waited, even though the urge togo on was strong within them. For several

    days they waited until the damaged feathershad grown sufficiently to permit the goose tofly. Albert Schweitzer

    Land of Living Skiesby Belle Schmidt

    In the fall, the skies of Saskatchewan

    become a backdrop for Canada geese

    as they execute their dances and drills

    over flat land and rolling hills.

    Their flapping wings flow likethe cadence of waves, rising and

    falling, fluctuating in tune with

    a silent beat over fields which

    lately held ripe wheat.

    Feathered elders, the geese

    converse constantly, inbound

    and outbound, in a language

    confusing to the earthbound.

    With honk-honks filling the blue,the harmonic flight oscillates,

    and heads south bidding us adieu,

    following its instinct to migrate.

    The familiar V breaks, flinging

    one side into a long outstretched

    arm, leaving a shorter side with

    stragglers flying wide.

    Like the Snowbirds aerobatic pilots,

    they group and regroup to give a

    spectacular air show, oblivious

    to the spectators below.

    The canvas of Saskatchewan skies

    presents a gift of beauty and peace:

    a seasonal, living art show with

    Canada geese in every masterpiece.
