Mansion on the Hill

 

I've lost track of all the beautiful historic buildings I've performed in over the years. When I pull up to the next one, I'm never quite certain if I've played at it already. Such was the case last week when I arrived at the Wadsworth Mansion in Middletown, CT to perform at my first Wedding gig of the season (we play less than a half-dozen of them per year, so it is still a fun thing to do now and then)

I strolled around the property, where I discovered a patio/terrace that connected with some steps to the back of the mansion, where the band was setting up.

I don't have much free time on the weekends because of all the shows that are booked for the next few months. It makes up for the very slows months in March and April, however. It still beats a regular job!
