Ft. Lewis Jazz Fest

I just got back from yet another trip. I was fortunate enough to chaperone our middle school and high school jazz bands to Fort Lewis Jazz Band Fest. I tell you, it has been SEVERAL years since I have done anything like that. Well to be honest, it has been more like 20 years. Anyway, these kids were AMAZING! There was a school from Grand Junction, Colorado that made me almost cry because the song was so beautiful. This young man played the Soprano Sax beautifully. This school was not even the best... The best school was from Pueblo, Colorado. It was incredible to hear such talent out of such young people. I tell you what, I think in a few years you are going to be buying songs performed by a young man by the name of Barkley Moffett. Of course this is the humble opinion of a band mom!

Well off I go to bed! Chaperoning is hard work and late nights! I'm beat!

Hugs!
Patty
