        Thank you, Brian! Thank you again, JoLa, for lots and lots of help with these. If it’s flawless, it’s thanks to you. Thanks to everyone for your participation!

        It was great to see a large number of people posting! There are 59 people participating; while that’s 14 less than last month’s 73 posts—still a good number.

        This month’s topic was the song, “In the Sweet By-and-By” (link to Wikipedia article). Below are the first 2 lines:

        “In the sweet by and by
        We shall meet on that beautiful shore.”

        Does anyone else hear strains of “She’ll Be Coming ‘Round the Mountain”? That’s probably the first one I learned that uses parts of this melody.

        It’s always great to see and hear the new Challenge participants; this month there were three! Let’s welcome Neil C, Barry, and Kelly Dillon. If you’re into building your skills, you’re in the right place!

        I’ve been anxious and agitated, meeting deadlines (that’s why my consolidated posts are arriving on Wednesday afternoon; as some of you know, I’m a proofreader, and a proofreader gets the job at the end, when there’s a good chance it’s already late), and your playing this song was a much-needed balm. Thank you to all of you.

        I’m sorry if I missed any new participants or if I missed posting anyone’s video or if I got anything wrong, please let me know and I’ll correct it. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions, thanks!
