That awkward moment when you decide to visit the hot tub for the first time on your vacation because the night you arrived, you were exhausted after a two-hour drive and six-hour flight, and the second night you were caught up in your cribbage tournament, so the third night in, you take 5 minutes to wriggle into your bathing suit—looking forward to quality time with the husband because there is not a soul in the hot tub—and you go outside only to discover it’s raining, and you start to turn around and head back in, but instead, tell yourself not to be a weenie, square your shoulders, and skip over to the entrance of the pool, only to be told by a lady leaving that the hot tub is broken.
About Marie de Haan
Marie is a gifted pianist, playing since the age of nine. As a teenager, she composed mainly instrumental piano music. She released her powerful debut single, “I Am Broken,” on October 22, 2020, a song whose creation drew heavily upon the trauma she endured as a victim of childhood sexual abuse. Marie held a benefit concert on September 10, 2021, in Skagit County. A portion of the proceeds went to CrossRoads Youth Ranch; this local organization—through equine therapy—empowers “at-risk and sexually exploited youth to heal, grow, and thrive.” She has continued to write music: Christian, folk, and country. Marie loves hiking, gardening, and photography. The Pacific Northwest—where she lives with her husband—is the backdrop for her favorite activities.
