Day Four: The Sun!
Well, we did manage to get a little sun on the fourth and final day of the retreat. We control many things, but the weather is not one of them. At least it wasn't freezing and snowing during our four days of fun; here's hoping that next year is even warmer!
Please think about joining us again next year where we'll have all new workshops, same four instructors. It's an awesome formula and we'll stick with it. January 29th - February 1st, 2015! Thanks again to the Homosassa Riverside Resort for providing an incredible place for us to do this. Thanks to Folkcraft Instruments for sponsoring the event and to Richard Ash for his fantastic classes, concert performance and assistance with the guests. thanks to Guy George and Sharrie George for the workshops, wonderful performances and organizational details. To Allen and Deborah McCord, Tom Ransom, Les Green and all the volunteers who lent a hand to make this retreat really sing a smooth song, THANK YOU! And to Jae Futch, my wife and my life, thanks for everything you do behind the scenes, and onstage, to bring magic to the events we produce. Most of all thanks to everyone who attended from near and far! Please post your pictures of the event and share with others - let them know that we'll be capping attendance next year to keep it intimate, so don't miss out on another fantastic week in Old Florida!
Oh, and Bill Colbert once again has given us permission to use his photos from the retreat. He did a great job last year, so here are the links to see what Bill saw through his lens. Thanks, Bill!
