Anda has the highest floor of the tower as her private domain. It is far removed from the noise and hustle of the streets below. However, as the hurricane sweeps through north and west, the windows rattle a brisk beat that keeps her fingers moving.
Johnny Joe’s Pub is the place to be for those who love traditional Irish music. While Ben plays his flute with the local musicians, Anda draws portraits of and for gracious and friendly pub-goers who are unable to cram themselves into the tiny room that pulsates with music.
At the bottom of the tower, Irish tunes resound, thanks to Ben’s being welcomed into the Cushendall music scene. After this one was over, Ben headed off to Johnny Joe’s with the retirees who didn’t have to get up and go to work early in the morning.
Magical! A wonderful narrative to follow, drawings to glimpse and music to imagine.
Thinking of you all. Blessings. Leon
Thanks for checking in and commenting, Leon. We feel drenched in the magic of the place and think of you fondly. Pam
