Penny is not ready for hiking just yet! It is still too muggy.

I will be kind. :-)

However, I did go to a terrific concert outdoors in Plymouth as part of the 400th Anniversary of the Pilgrims.

It was a Reggae Concert.

Wonderful band and dear friends.

I suppose one COULD connect Reggae with the pilgrims in a convoluted way, since the Caribbean id part of the “New World” as well! :-)
