Concerts

They did a great job, that Marseilles chorus. On Friday afternoon they sang at the Bethany Home where 50 of the residents deeply appreciated the time of worship. And the Home laid out a great spread for the travelers. Wonderful!

The nearby Protestant church loaned us their “temple” on Friday night and between 50 and 60 listened to a beautiful concert of hymns, with a good selection of “Gospels” in the second half. The local parish was deeply blessed. And we appreciated their generosity.

I’m listening to a CD Son 2 picked up on Saturday evening from the Acappella concert in Montreux. (Think: Smoke on the Water by… some group with a color in their title.) Over 1000 folks were there and Daughter, a friend and Son 2 had a great time. A very “musical weekend”.

    Was “Deep Purple” the group you were thinking of? I am not a big fan of Deep Purple, but I do enjoy playing Guitar Hero. Do you have Guitar Hero in Switzerland? I had a very bloody weekend because I went to see “300″ not once, but twice. I am glad to read that you enjoyed the very musical weekend.

    Music is good! Glad you had a musical weekend.

    Ours was warm, sunny, and springy! I love it! Every morning when I walk out to get the paper (at around 8:30 a.m.), the birds are singing, the trees are budding with that delightful hint of green, and I thank God for the beautiful beginnings. Have I mentioned I love retirement? :)

    Bravo on the music. Did said musical group influence the color change to your blog header?

    If what Randy asked is true, then I am glad you did not listen to any Pink Floyd.

    No offense to those who like pink headers.

    I thought “Smoke on the Water” was the Edgar Winter Band? Sounds like you have a good spirit of cooperation with your fellow Christian Churches.

    Hey, I like this new Blog Header … impressively slick.

    Wish I could have heard the choirs. Give my love to wifey! :)
