JULY

Here it is the 9th of July and I've posted zilch so far this month. I've been teaching a music unit to elementary-aged children at the East School Summer's Exploration Program. It's just a few hours Monday-Thursday... and tomorrow we go on a field trip to McMinnville to see the Space Museum and the Spruce Goose. Have I ever said I love field trips? I do. I'm looking forward to it!!

I spent 4 hours in my backyard today pulling weeds and tidying up the landscape. There are many more hours of back yard (and front yard work) ahead. I may take a picture or two when (positive thinking) I get everything looking presentable.

As you can see...there's not a whole lot to blog about...which is pretty cool for a change. I try to keep this site for school related information, so you'll have to excuse my summer "chatter".

The VE Car Wash MAY still be the 19th. Stay posted. I don't want to drive to the wedding by myself (mostly in an effort to conserve gasoline) so the plans are still up in the air.

Also...the VE dresses have been ordered and will be sent to my home address, so I'll let you VE Ladies know when they arrive so you can try them on.

I've included a picture from the Solo & Ensemble Contest in Astoria last year...just a bonus. I hope you had a great 4th of July. Keep singing.
