Hi there all you singers!

Song circle this Friday will be at our home near Mooney's Bay. We know
it is a long week-end but try to get out on Friday night if you can. We
hope to have a repeat of last year's renderings of old patriotic
imperial songs some of us learned in our youth to celebrate Victoria Day.

To get  to 808 Nicholson Ave.

By bus: #142 from Billings Bridge stops at Springland near Nicholson. We
are 3 doors along Nicholson on the south side of the street. Our house
number is on the garage and not too visible from the road so we shall
put a  sign on a stake at the end of our driveway.

By car or bike: South on Bronson  to Brookfield Exit . Cross Brookfield
onto Flannery and continue along to Nicholson.Turn right on Nicholson to
808. 


 or

Riverside Drive south to Ridgwood where  you will see the huge St Elias
Orthodox Church on the south east corner across from Mooney's Bay Park.
Turn left on Ridgewood a short block to Springland Ave. Turn right onto
Springland and at the second street on the left which is Nicholson turn
left. We are the third house on the right side of the street. You can
park on the street or leave your bike in our back yard.

The Billings Estate Museum, 2100 Cabot Street

Why not try something different this weekend! Bring a friend and spend a few entertaining hours on the Billings' Estate helping to solve-

Killing Times: A Murder Mystery

 May 22 & 23, 7:30 pm

When a bookkeeper who works for the Billings family is poisoned, the quiet and gentle Sally is fingered as the prime suspect.  Could she have a dark side that she has kept in the shadows for all these years? Or is she being framed for a crime she didn't commit? 

In this fun, interactive romp, you'll meet all the suspects as the Ottawa StoryTellers lead you through a variety of settings around the Estate. 

If you haven't been to the beautiful Billings Estate, spring is a wonderful time to discover this little Ottawa jewel.

Tickets: $15, available in person at the Billings Estate or by phone, 613-247-4830.

Don't be disappointed! Space is limited, so reserve your tickets now.

HI song circlers --does anyone know of anyone who might want to have a  
little retreat/vacation my house, 90 Britannia Road, which will be  
available/empty/fairly clean (I hope) for the first 2 weeks of June?   
I would love to find someone to live there, so it won't be empty  
before I come back for the summer, and ideally, to take some care of  
the garden, mow the lawn, coddle seedlings, etc.
By way of enticement, there's the swings, porch and garden; a kayak  
available, the patio to enjoy and the river will likely be warm enough  
to swim, I think the wifi will be hooked up and I would probably cover  
the utilities if they weren't exorbitant.
Please spread the word and give anyone interested this e-mail.  If we  
find there's something to pursue, I will call them.

Many thanks, Caroline Parry -in-Montreal
