Not to brag, but
all week long people have been coming up to me to say
how much they enjoyed the concert, which feels really good.

The chorus is now off for the summer, to resume in September.
Meanwhile we need a new place to rehearse every week.
For many years, the chorus would rehearse in the same church building.
But the church has come upon such hard times that
the building is all but falling down around our ears.
So we have had our last rehearsal there, after all this time.

The most likely place for us to resume rehearsals is
a rehearsal studio with a theater company one town over.
The theater company is in reasonable health and they take care of their property.
So hopefully we can resume there in September.
The chorus board looked around at other churches,
but nothing worked out.
