“The Hills are Alive
With the Sound of Music.”
Music fills the soul.
When atop a hill, on a farm,
surrounded by the glory of nature
as far as the eye can see,
all is good.

A Teacher's Reflections 
Beautiful day! Beautiful music!😊
Yes, and yes. 🙂
How special!!
It was. I felt lucky to be in that moment. 🙂
Idyllic!! A beautiful day and music! What could be better?
My thoughts, exactly!
Music and lovely weather can make make a day special.
It really can, Sheryl, especially during this pandemic.
That’s what we need around here–a drive in live concert!
That’s exactly what it was, with people and cars far apart. Yes, I think everyone needs one.
Is that more from the drive-in birthday party, Jennie? Sensible social distancing, I see. 🙂
Best wishes, pete.
Same place, but this event happened just over the weekend. The cars were really far apart in a sort of arc, instead of lined up. In that way it felt like a concert, and the views were wide open. It was good for the soul. 🙂
Life is good to me!
🙂
What a beautiful day!!
It really was, Liz. The view of Mt. Wachusset is spectacular. It had a Vermont feel.
Yes, I can see that Vermont feel, music in a field by the barn!
Absolutely!!
Your video provides the visible proof of these words : “Music does more than soothe the soul, it brings balance to the mind, body and spirit.” – Bertice Berry, PhD. Thank-you!
Lovely quote, and I feel the video is a good visual to that quote. Thank you, Ellen.
This looks great, Jennie. It is lovely that you can at least go out a bit now.
It is a beautiful spot. With so much room everyone stayed far apart. It was wonderful be out!
what a beautiful setting, and the music is icing on the cake!
Yes, and yes!
🙂
How fun! It looks like you had a lovely day for that event! 😀
It was a glorious day. I wish you could see this mountain top (hill top?) that overlooks Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The owners tell me that the night sky and the stars are dazzling. Add music, and who could ask for more? 🙂
Ooh, that sounds awesome!🌛🪐✨
Your kinda place! 🙂
Especially the dark sky! 😀
Oh, yes! 😀
✨😄
Now that’s a beautiful sight (and sounds).
😀
what a delightful idea!
Thank you, Kate!
Wonderful Jennie! You are living inside a wonderful landscape. Enjoy it! Thank you for sharing. Michael
Thanks, Michael!
🙂
Beautiful video, Jennie and such a lovely poem.
Thank you!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻♥️♥️♥️♥️
That’s beautiful…
Thank you!
Music is a wonderful gift! Love that!
It is, and thank you!
A nice poem.
Thank you.
This sent me into a trance. It was beautiful. 😃
Thank you!
Always my pleasure, mate. 😘😃

Thank you, Karen.
Music does fill the soul. That’s a pretty huge space to fill though
It does, and it is.
Very well said! Music really fills the soul and music is everything!
Thank you!
