Love this program. Have been listening for several years now. I am from Indiana, thats were my children and parents are. I began listening to A Christmas Celtic Soujourn in 2003 and listen every year to the previous years program. My children used to sat around the fireplace and we would listen to your Christmas program. I travel the country working for the public health service caring for the indigent. Other than Indiana, I have lived in Mississippi, Iowa and now in Texas. I havent been home for years for Christmas but this program takes me home every season. I so enjoy the celtic music and the poems. Being of Irish/Scottish/English descent my greatgrandmother was a Collins from County Cork, Celtic music has always been intertwined in my life and very much a part of me. Brian , please keep doing what youre doing. Youll never know the lives you touch and the peace you help bring to the soul during this season of Christmas. I miss my family but you help make it more bearable. Someday I hope to be able to come to Boston and enjoy a Christmas Celtic Sojourn in person. Thank you so much.
