I made a quick trip over to Seattle yesterday to see Rose perform in the Western International Band Clinic concert. There were actually two concerts with two bands each but I only went to the 10:30 am concert to see Rose. I saw her at a distance before the concert began and during the concert I could see the top of her bassoon. Afterward we did get to talk for a minute before she had to run on to other things.
She went Friday with the band director and four other students from her school. They had clinics and listened to several bands over the time they were there as well as played in their own concerts.
It was a nice day in Seattle. The sun even shone a bit and the view of Mount Rainer was impressive.
The concert was at the Double Tree Seattle Airport Hotel. It is a big hotel and the ball room was big enough for the concert. The only problem was that the seating was all at floor level so it was a bit hard to see the participants but they sounded pretty good.
It was a nice day for a drive. The only blip in the weather was just a bit of wind from Snoqualmie pass to about Issaquah.
Here is a chance to share a few things with family and those who might be interested in my musings.

Sounds like you had a nice day and Rose had a good oppertunity also. I am glad that your work schedule allows you to do thing like that. I know it is important to be involved in our kids lives.
