Well, we're home! We flew into Milwaukee last Thursday night around 11, shuttled to Pete's car, and drove home. Even in Milwaukee Pete made the comment, "the buildings all seem so spaced out!" I'm still sort of adjusting to the difference in pace, in lifestyle, but that's a common thing these days.
We played at the Farmers Market Saturday morning. That was a treat as it was acoustic. It was great to play unplugged. It was great to see family and friends and community members.
Saturday night I went to the Oshkosh Music Art Series Concert at the Algoma Club. It's a fundraiser for music education in Oshkosh. Dorothy Zerbe, The Guilty Wanted, and Copper Box played. It's not often that I'm in Oshkosh during the weekend, and it was so fantastic and encouraging to see the Oshkosh community getting together to celebrate art and say that it's important. I was reminded of how incredible our community here really is and how much it has to offer. Leif Larson also painted throughout the night and auctioned off his masterpiece near the end of the evening.
Whoever you are reading this, if we were sitting together with a drink I'd toast with you to lovers of art, lovers of people. It's an incredible thing to be a part of.
Right on! We have a lot of talent in the Fox Valley....many different styles, and it should be celebrated. Music can take you places . ...get on board!
