Episode 51: The Simplicity of Power Outages and Accepting What Is

Welcome to the Carousel of Happiness Podcast.

Today is the last day to enjoy a donation match to celebrate the wedding anniversary of friends of the carousel, Larry and Jane McGrath. Go to our website here and make a donation "In Honor of..." or "In Memory of..." in order to get the match. You and your honoree will even receive a personalized thank you from Lady Mayor herself. 

Happy 56th Wedding Anniversary, Larry and Jane!!
