we're taking a break for a couple of weeks (vacations, auditions) and then meeting again later in august. i've already started work on arranging another piece of music. for what we've been doing, there's been a real lack of wind quintet music, so we've had to scour the net for good stuff, plus do some of our own. we played two of our own arrangements at the concerts, one of which was mine.
after we had our late lunch, i went to the bookstore, picked up a half-dozen or so mysteries for my partner, whose to-read pile has dwindled to nothing. grabbed fish and chips on the way home, mowed the lawn after supper. that's my stuff for the weekend done; today is going to be a day of whatever i want, we'll do a long walk with the dogs, make a big roast beef supper, and other than that, who knows, who cares.
