Well, we can't all write regularly, sorry about that. I will try to be better. Since April, I got to perform two packed concerts with the Athens Symphony Orchestra. More than 1,800 at each show and these were Pops concerts so we did more light hearted stuff. The staff arranger even did a version of Stairway to Heaven for Euphonium, Rhythm Section,and Orchestra...I was not sure at first, but it was GREAT fun and the audience TOTALLY loved it. I was asked many times if it was on one of my CDs...maybe an idea for the future...

I then was lucky enough to enjoy a one week vacation in St. Maarten...a really beautiful and awesome place...half the island is Dutch (where we stayed) and the other half French. We enjoyed a very peaceful vacation and drove around the island, had chocolate crossiants whiel sitting next to the yachts and drove around the island. It was a GREAT trip and I highly recommend this destination.

Since we got back I have been planning and prepping for the IEI Festival...one of my labors of love. It is going to be another incredible year...stellar artists, great students, and a fun time for sure. Check out the schedule on the IEI tab on the home page and please come join us for a concert or two. The will be amazing.

Also enjoyed some hiking and geocaching in North Georgia with my niece and nephew...good fun stuff.

Well, more next week as we get ready for fun camp.
