Hello and welcome, Nina!
Nice to see another Californian join the family! I'm from NorCal myself - for the last 18 years - and really enjoy it out here - much better weather than back east
When you're here, I hope you enjoy not only the best Celtic music on the Internet, but the very nicest people and the great forums! When you have a chance, please feel free to wander about and make yourself at home - we're delighted to welcome you to the CR family!
Wishing you a wonderful week and I look forward to reading more of your posts!
