Recuperation journey: Looking at the sky

I attended a wonderful solo performance by singer/songwriter/guitarist Susan Carson on the Derby Green Thursday night. 

Inclement weather forced the concert to be  rescheduled and unfortunately there were only about a dozen people in attendance to enjoy the variety of music genres Carson played. 

See previous post about her performance.

The sky added to a magical evening of live music, featuring a pastel sunset and a beautiful supermoon. 

Tonight the moon will be 100 percent illuminated, a Full Harvest Moon. 

Singer/songwriter Susan Carson's solo performance rocks Derby Green

Singer/songwriter/guitarist Susan Carson of Stamford gave a wonderful performance Thursday night on the Derby Green. 

The city's final concert of the season was slated for Tuesday but inclement weather rescheduled Carson's appearance. 

The crowd may have been small but those in attendance enjoyed her eclectic mix of music, ranging from Blind Faith and Jefferson Starship to Johnny Cash.

Friends and I told Carson she needs to make a return visit to Derby next year!
