I'm back! What a great trip. The weather was perfect. Erica is beautiful and we got to spend even more time with her than we thought we would because her mother just got a job and needed a baby sitter!!! Yahoo!

The dumbek and the Water Symphony (thanks for showing me the store 'nut and thanks to all you 'catters for your encouragement) were both successes. I restrung her dad's guitar and sang a few songs.

She's only 20 months and just starting to put words together. As she left our room for the last time before we went to the airport she said "Bye Dude!".

I'm smitten.
