Thank you for joining, Stephanie. I'm so sorry you and Nick had to close Alchemy; it was the best venue for musicians in the area, and you did a great job. Send me your email address, and I'll send you that business plan I told Nick about—it's yours to modify as you see fit, and you may be able to use some aspects in a new venture. And I'll gladly share contacts with you. Contact me at: woodstockwalkforpeace@gmail.com

"I hope tomorrow you'll find better things."—Ray Davies

I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day

I heard the bells on Christmas day
Their old familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

I thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along th'unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

And in despair I bowed my head:
'There is no peace on earth, ' I said
'For hate is strong, and mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good will to men.'

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
'God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With peace on earth, good will to men.'

Till, ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day
A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,
Of peace on earth, good will to men.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
