Our little town got lucky for St. Patrick's Day - Wendy MacIsaac, Mary Jane Lamond, Cathy Porter and Seph Peters came here to play in between their Seattle and Portland shows promoting their CD, Seinn.

But I digress... Wendy recently took up the mandolin and played it a bit during the evening. I asked - and got - her permission to post a photo of her with it on the Cafe. So, here it is:
