I remember 2005…it was celebrating Harrison’s 65th birthday I think too (or was it 70th? I just know it was significant). I wrote a song for him based on a Nova Scotia folks song…I’ll look through my old note books and see if I still have the lyrics. I was so nervous to sing it! I thin I rehearsed it with Esther Ewing, but I was too nervous to do it as a duet!
I remember too that we also mourned our colleague Colin Morley, who was killed in the July 7 2005 London Underground bombings the month before. I met some life-long friends at that OSonOS, including Feliz Telik from Turkey and Piret Jeedas from Estonia who were both working (along with Kairi Birk) at Tim Merry’s Split Rock Learning Centre in Yarmouth. Halifax is such a great city. And it was a really fun time, probably my favourite of the three full OSonOS’s I attended (including the OSonOS IX which I co-hosted with Laurel Doersam in Vancouver in 2001). There was great conversation, a beautiful, community location and dancing and drinking every night!
