Last Orchestra Concert

It has been a long time since I started playing the viola, way back to 4th grade. It's something that I may have talent in, but don't put in the effort, but I love playing. Especially in a quartet or in an orchestra. This Tuesday night @ 7:30 in McCain, will be my last collegiate concert here @ K-State. I wouldn't say I'm sad or anything, these past four years in orchestra have been great, probably one of the better parts of my college experience. Do you know what's great, one or more people from my family have been to every single one of my concerts. family... you rock!
Here's a pic of us in class this week (only the lower half), I love these peeps.

Stockdale visit

One of my favorite get-aways in Manhattan is to take a drive out to Stockdale on the far side of Tuttle. I went out there this morning to have some solitude with Him. It has been a totally beautiful day and I could see across the whole lake and like no one was there, so it was a little slice of paradice. I love skipping rocks and would challenge anyone go without finding a skippable rock at Stockdale, it's an impossible feat.
So yeah, I got to enjoy one of my favorite spots with the big G today and catch some rays :)

When I got home I did some upkeep on my garden, not much to report except the sweet peas are comming up (right on schedule) Would any one like to come shoot the squirrels in my back yard? They are munching on my tulips and stealing my seeds that I've planted, grr.
