I call today’s song “Warp Speed” to honor those who created a vaccine to fight the 2020 pandemic. Since this is the last post for the year 2020, let us ring out the old, troubled year, with a concerto-style song, photographs of beautiful mountain lands, and hopes for something more normal and natural next year.

If you listen closely to the beginning and end of the song, you will hear sound effects from the original Star Trek series — hailing whistle, alarms, and an automatic door. Of course, I had to throw these into a song called “Warp Speed!” Happy listening, watching, and a Happy New Year to you, too.
