  • Home Again

    My return trip from Houston was a little more eventful than I would have liked. My flight was delayed almost an hour which put me landing with just twenty minutes to spare in catching my shuttle back to Chattanooga. We deplaned at the farthermost gate a...
  • At The Airport

    We had a late night after the Houston Salutes celebration and an early start this morning as I had to leave for the airport at 6am. My flight to Atlanta has been delayed for 30 minutes due to fog there, which gives me time to post a couple of pictures fr...
  • Television

    I've gotten a couple of emails this afternoon from folks inquiring as to whether this event is being televised or not. To the best of my knowledge it is not. OK - just as I was typing this George Veras and Jim Nantz walked by and I learned it is definit...

  • Sound Check in Houston

    Every waking moment has been occupied for the last couple of days and I just found 30 free minutes before we do our sound check here in Houston at Reliant Arena. This is going to be a fun show to be involved in and it is even better knowing that the proc...

    Our plane touched ground safely around 2:30. I'm at the home of Chuck and Peggy Carter now. She's an excellent dulcimer player, her web site is http://www.peggycarter.com. I'm going to post a couple of pictures on the photographs page in a moment - one ...
  • Texas Bound

    I’m about to board Continental flight 1821 to Houston after traveling packed like a sardine this morning in a shuttle van from Chattanooga to Atlanta. I hope to catch a little shut eye during the flight this afternoon as I’ve been burning the midnight...
  • On the stage

    We are on the stage waiting for the dignitaries to take their seats. I took a photo of Yanni with president Bush sr. a few minutes ago. One of the sound guys told me that right after I left that pres. Bush was looking for me to take more pictures. I was...

  • Wide Awake

    I got so focused working on the upcoming changes to this web site yesterday that my brain was unable to shut down. I awoke this morning dreaming of cascading style sheets and compliant blog posts. Don't worry if you don't know what I'm talking about - I a...

  • A little progress and a great day for a walk

    The past several days have been very satisfying. I didn't finish the hymns CD project but I made reasonable progress. I also spent a lot of time working on new material including Rimsky-Korsakov's "Flight of the Bumblebee," Grieg's "In The Hall of the M...

    I made it safely through a snow and ice storm and arrived at the home of Glen and Kathie Jerrell Sunday evening as the temperature fell to single digits. On Monday I played for a packed room of Middle Schoolers at Knox Middle school. They were a blast a...
