1train round the bend

Summer is past and fall is here! Time to get on a new train!

At our next get-together on Monday, October 1, 2018 from 6:00 till 7:30 p.m. at Acorn Books near Smyrna, we will spend some time strumming railroad songs and fill the rest of the night with shout-outs (maybe including some songs about autumn – California Dreaming, anyone?).

Most of the songs on the song list are from Our Song Book. Others are selections from Funky Frets Uke Fest:

See you there!
