PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER "Where in the World" is Fred Penner? Well, on Apr. 11th he was in Bayfield for two concerts at the Bayfield Town Hall. The first show in the afternoon was for families while the second was an evening show for the big kids that grew up singing all those memorable Penner tunes. In the afternoon the town hall was a fluid wave of music with undulating babies, toddlers and youngsters swaying and ambling about to the music. During sing -a -longs and times of audience participation their parents and grandparents showed them the way. The hall was packed with folks both little and big some getting comfy on mats on the floor others waving down from the balcony. It was a very happy place to be. Penner performed several crowd pleasing favorites including, "Sandwiches" and "The Cat Came Back" as well as some touching selections such as "Puff the Magic Dragon" and "Celebrate Being", a song he told the audience he penned for his sister with Down Syndrome. He also played a couple of songs from his latest album, "Where in the World" that recently won the 2015 Juno Award for Children's Album of the Year. Songs like, the title track, "Where in the World" as well as "Home is Where the Heart is" may not have been as familiar as some but written in the Penner style of catchy choruses it wasn't long before the whole audience was joining in. The two Fred Penner performances were brought to the community as part of the Bayfield Concert Series thanks to Meades Bros. Productions and sponsor briandupuis.com. Next on the docket is an Evening with Alan Frew of Glass Tiger on May 7.

Yes, my first trip across the border to the United States was in a coach bus filled with classmates under the auspicious direction of Mr. Madge and Mr. Kalbfleisch. We drove to New York City listening to selections by the Police and Tears for Fears on the bus radio. I remember a guided bus tour where we drove by the Dakota, final residence of John Lennon — I snapped a picture of the upper levels of the building with my camera as we sped by. I also have pictures of the Statue of Liberty off in the distance across the harbor. But what I remember most was our unscheduled time — where my two roommates and I went out for dinner and experienced so much culture shock that we scurried back to the hotel, went into our room and bolted the door. It was then I gave my mates and I a pep talk. Who knew if we'd ever be in this city again? I was going to explore it and who was with me? cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/weekl6lssue302/tabid/720/Default.aspx 10/11 6/13/2019 week 16 Issue 302 Well, off we went in the opposite direction from dinner, and boy, did we have fun — time spent in a book store open 24-7 and a stop at the NBC gift shop for Saturday Night Live souvenirs. We watched horse and carriages evolve from a very fancy hotel and had milkshakes in a little diner on Broadway. We ran into classmates in the hotel corridor upon our return. They asked where we had been. Their eyes grew round as saucers as we told them about our evening of adventure. These football players hadn't left the hotel and here we were three seemingly timid teens out in the city that never sleeps. In the three decades since this inaugural trip I have had the good fortune to see a lot of the continental United States, the Caribbean and some of Central and South America but I have never been back to New York City. And so it goes that in a week my husband and I are expanding our horizons further afield and taking our first trip to Europe. Like I was at 17, 1 am both nervous and excited to embark on this journey and I hope I can tap into my teenage joie de vivre and thoroughly make the most of this holiday because you just never know when next the opportunity will present itself. — Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
