Friday, March 28, 2025 Metro Brass had a concert at the Hastings Arts Center tonight. We were so lucky that so many, many of our friends and family came to the show.

Friday, March 21, 2025 I subbed in the same room today as I did yesterday. A girl came in for the last class of the day and said, “You are my favorite sub. I wish you were my real teacher.” I said thank you, that was very nice to hear, but I bet her regular
