Musical Interlude: Here's another new discovery of mine, from yet another old episode of Mountain Stage. It's a nice, uplifting song, an anthem for those who want to bring change and reform.
"Room at the Table," performed by Carrie Newcomer.

"The climate crisis we are facing is large, complex and overwhelming in its scope. But we have tremendous power in how we choose to live our daily lives. Change happens one tree at a time, one conversation at a time, one daily action that heals the world three feet around us, that narrows our divides and honors our interconnected place in the natural scheme of things." --Carrie Newcomer

My guitar teacher just released a new single...
Seriously, #CarrieNewcomer has made a career out of #gentle, #compassionate, and #energetic #music - songs that are uplifting AND great listening, and this song is right in that vein. Check it out!
