A Lively Evening of Dining and Dancing

During our first group in January, we spent one of our evenings at La Bodega dining and dancing to the wonderful music of Carol Bedford. Bill and I have lived at Lakeside now for three years, and I can't believe this is the first time we've ever heard Carol sing. That's Bill and me dancing, and Carol in the background.

I can't believe I didn't get a better picture of her! Carol is a local singing star in the area and I read on one web site that "she is blessed with "Perfect Pitch," and after listening to her this night, I DO believe! She sings a variety of music, but being a fan of ballads, I loved her renditions of Anne Murray and Emmy Lou Harris, as well as many others...too numerous to mention. I think she even sang a Patti Page song, and beautifully, I might add, but having been blessed with a poor memory (never can remember if or why I'm mad at someone!), I just cannot remember all the music she sang. I just know I enjoyed the evening thoroughly. And, since many of our participants bought CDs and danced the night away, I am positive they enjoyed themselves also.

One thing I found out recently and that many people don't know about Carol is that she was not only California's Country Music female vocalist of the Year, for two years in a row, but that she was a lawyer and a family court Judge in San Diego. Can't wait to hear her again. So glad you're
at Lakeside, Carol. Looking forward to another show soon! And this time, I'll be sure to take a better picture!
