[HANASHIR:15075] Re: About Jewish musical options

[elerner1 <elerner1...>]

I think this was similar to the program I took several years ago, which I 
traveled to NYC for. HOW nice it would be if it were also offered online!!! The 
course at the time cost me $500.00 and thank goodness I had a relative to stay 
with in the city. It was very well worth it, although now I'd find it difficult 
to go away. You'd think it would be easier when your kids grow up, but now 
besides the pets at home, we have to be home in case my aging inlaws need us. 
After they get situated in a facility, it might be easier. But I still advocate 
for more online opportunities at a reasonable price.
