Galveston's "Dickens on the Strand"

On the first weekend in December, Galveston, Texas hosts an event harking back to Victorian days.
Look at http://www.galvestonhistory.com/Dickens_on_The_Strand.asp
Our daughter (PBASE k_grqst) belongs to a group of women who sing at festivals.
They expand their membership for the performances at Dickens to a group called Mistletoe
and I and many others were invited to sing with them.
It is a lot fun to create a costume and participate!

I think you've got the best photo of me that I've seen so far! It was great to have you there with us, and even singing with Mistletoe! Thank you so much!
