Kenwood neighbors Xandra Coe and Judy Meath treated neighbors and random kayakers and people enjoying Lake of the Isles on a gorgeous September Sunday to a Martin Zeller concert. Martin Zeller, of local band Gear Daddies’ fame, got folks of all ages dancing and singing on Kenilworth Parkway. Judy and Xandra generously hosted the concert and tasty food from Taco Way food truck for all who wandered over to enjoy the end of summer, good music, community and the generosity of neighbors.
