Yarn Crawl

In case you're curious to know what a yarn crawl looks like, check this out. :)
Have to say the concert last night could have gone worse - the Weber was even almost credible. Had a brain fart during the Stars & Stripes when standing with the other two piccolists & trying to play from memory, but except for a thinning of the texture, what with all the clapping along, drinking, etc., I don't think the audience noticed.
And yes, we have to boil our water - at least for the next few days. Fortunately I order bottled water _way_ ahead ever since the delivery company started charging a "oil surcharge" for every delivery so I get tons & then can skip the next few - and fortunately we're not @ the end of that cycle, so we have about 4 5-gallon containers that I HOPE will tide us over.

Other than that I might take the day of tootling - and come to think of it should get out now for my toddle before the temps hit their projected high of 88F and humid today (blech). On the other hand, I just discovered we're doing Stravinsky's Firebird next fall, with its HUGE flute solo, so best I get cracking on that.

  1. Great job with the pictures John - good luck with all your practicing. If you're around Friday afternoon/evening of Memorial Day weekend we have Stephen West joining us - - might make a good public performance spot for you! Annissa

  2. We have at least eight big bottles of water. Don't try to downplay your water obsession.
