The end is in sight...


No, that is not some doomsday prediction regarding the current virus fears.  We are about a week out from getting on down the road.

I let Mark know that we probably had one more get-together, but would be focused on getting gear packed up... I have a lot of stuff in his studio (and cases in his garage).  But, today, we just enjoyed making music.

It was New Bass Guitar Day at his house.  This nice G&L bass will be a good addition for him...


That is a happy-bass-player smile!  He has been playing my Yamaha bass since we've been here, and he has been playing the bass tracks on our recordings.  He pretty much needed a bass now that he is into it, and the Yamaha will be going home with me.  He picked a nice one!

We played a few songs when he could jam out on the bass.  Then, we decided on another song to record, knowing that we may not finish all the tracks before we leave.  It was a good day.

Joan and Cindy worked on separate projects, neither at the sewing/quilting stage.  I think all 4 of us will miss these get-togethers.

On the way back to our RV park, we stopped at Steph and Dan's house.  There were excited that the furniture for their theater room was delivered today...


That is the new boy, Tango, sitting between them.  On their new theater seats.

Steph pulled up just behind us.  She had been asked if she'd volunteer to hand out meals again today.  Interesting term: "asked to volunteer."  ;-)  She said it went a lot smoother and faster today; they let her do the organizing and got the higher ups to allow the volunteers to touch the bags that were being handed out (which has nothing to do with food preparation or serving).  They handed out over 600 meals today, with very little wait for those getting the meals.

Even though there is no school right now, both of them have meetings (online), projects, and teacher enrichment courses each day... that new theater seating is going to have to wait for evening and weekends.
