CO Retreat Sunday - we're home

I *think* some kids slept (well, I heard that a few fell asleep on a bed - ended up 3 to the bed on a double...) but they looked a little tired this morning. The smell of nut rolls and cinnamon buns woke everyone up and after a little free time we hit the rehearsal room for a last 2 hours of Vivaldi. At 11:15 we performed for the parents (this piece is so neat! We did a ton of work this weekend!) and then it was time to pack it up and clean it up.

Lunch was yummy - grilled sandwiches and leftovers. A little free time (beach, paddle boat on the lake, a last Snack Attack run) and it was time to clean it all up and head on home. We hit 40 minutes delay because of a turned over truck on the 2 lane highway (apparently regulars out to the coast say this is something you always have to account for regarding travel time) but made it back only about 20 minutes late.

Thanks again to everyone who organized this, drove this, kept it running on time, and to all the kids who really showed me their Titan Orchestra spirit!

See you all Tuesday evening at our concert... hope to impress you there!
Musically yours,
