Here's a clear blue sky in—you guessed it— Virginia. That's where my mom is from, and today is her 91st birthday. I have an indelible memory of crossing the Shenandoah River in the family station wagon, and my mother singing that song in her beautiful clear soprano voice. Happy B-day, Mother!

Reminds me of an old song:
ReplyDeleteOh Shenandoah,
I long to see you,
Away you rolling river
Oh Shenandoah,
I long to see you,
Away, I'm bound away
'cross the wide Missouri
Oh, and happy birthday to your mother!
ReplyDeleteWow! 91! Happy birthday Alexa's Mom!
