Will...Yeah, all's well, and you? I do see you around the net so I trust you're well.

We're planning the second Greenfield (Nova Scotia) Music Boot Camp for this July. It's a kids day program with guitar, bass, keys, drums, voice, recording (Garage Band) and whatever else comes up. Last year we had 20 or so kids and anticipate more this year. We may add a staff member too, as last year it was just my buddy Brad and myself doing music and my wife doing crafts. It's a wonderful community we like to support and visit...a nice break from Ontario.

I have done other summer music camps and schools, but there's not a lot of time as I continue my own studio lessons through half the summer and take the rest off. Not much point in being self-employed if I don't get vacation.

Music instruction is my only job besides a little gigging, and I often wonder what would have become of me if my parents hadn't been so wise as to encourage music in me. It's the best job in the world.

Peace, Mooh.
