My new CD...what to call it?


So the working title was 'C major, Ursa minor'...which I really like. C major is the first chord I think I ever learned on the guitar when I was 11 years old. Ursa minor is another name for the Little Dipper constellation. Ever since my Dad taught me about the stars, I've loved looking up at the night sky and identifying my old favourites. But there's more.

Ursa is the latin word for 'bear'...so Ursa minor means 'little bear'. One of the songs on the CD is called 'Where the Wild Things Are', a song I wrote in memory of Timothy Treadwell. More about him later.

But it also reminds me of my little dog, Whimsey, who is my sweet long-term companion. She'll be 15 years old this summer!
