So hop on the bus and let’s get rolling.

 

Here is a boy scout and his sister guiding in the crowds.

Lakeway Justice center is the location.

We are on time. Looks like a Baritone player is a little late.

Looking at the heron sculpture in the distance gave rise to an interesting view of instrument cases.

Don’t worry about donating. You’re covered.

The director is beginning the concert.

We need to find a seat.

Not here.

Maybe we can sit with the Elk.

Here we go. A nice comfortable spot with the chessplayers

I hope you had a good time. Sit back and enjoy the concert and food. Chicago wants to play one song for sure. I hope you have a great week.

  2. I miss attending musical concerts, and if they were outside in our area, I’d leap to attend. Thank you for sharing the Lakeway experience. Have a great day — music and food, perfection. 😊

    1. The Producer is 100% responsible. We decided to move after Hurricane Harvey and I stayed home with the pups and she went house hunting. She called and said I think I’ve found the perfect place. My response was only, “Buy it.” I first saw our new house when we moved in. I figured if it was good enough for her it was more than good enough for me. She did a great job.

  10. What a wonderful reason to go to the park. We have had concerts like this on the grounds of an old school (now apartments for elderly) and they’ve proven to be so popular the town is building a venue for them behind Town Hall.

    I’ll have a slice, or two of pepperoni. Thanks John.

  12. Thanks for sharing, John. Outdoor concerts are a pleasure, and it’s nice your community put this one on. We attended an outdoor concert of the Lansing Symphony Orchestra; the best orchestra I think I’ve ever heard live.

      1. 😂😂😂 What a wonderful idea, dear John! You save the humanity! Grisha was fond of the French music, including the baroque one, the Scottish & the Irish folklore. He liked dancing under these tunes. 😁😁😁

  23. This was fabulous, John!! Nothing like a well-oiled Community Band machine to bring out the toe-tapping public. Some of our audience members have even gotten up to dance!

  25. Love the song!!
    You sure live in a neat neighbourhood.
    I’ll have the margherita pizza, no parm!

    I’m taking my pizza and grabbing a chair, although I want to sit alone.
    Lots of places away from people, so no probs.
    I brought a sketch pad and pencils, so I can draw to the music!
    Thanks, John!
    🐂💋🐂💋🐂💋

  27. A couple slices of pizza whilst listening to music outdoors and checking out cool sculptures equals an A for you, young man. And to cap it off with one of the best songs ever? A plus!
