Nice Afternoon in Terre Haute

It was so nice to look up at a church dinner in Terre Haute, IN, and see Ada, Jerry, and Heather walking in. Andrew's quartet sang at a 3:00 service and they came just to hear him - and it was great to have them there. I do have some videos, but am having a hard time getting them to post. Will go ahead and post these pictures now and try to add the video later.

Here we are in the back of the touring bus. Ada's face is buried in the flash, but you can see her in the background - and Jerry too - if you look closely!

The quartet spent Saturday recording a new CD in Evansville, IN. I did get a short video of that to post on my blog. That gives me hope that others may post as well -

Getting ready to get started on another recording session -

This producer really knew his stuff. You may be able to see the four colored lines on the computer at the left - each line represents a single voice. They can re-record over small places that need correcting, and just change the one voice that needs fixing. It was an educational experience to watch.

It was a LONG but very good weekend. I learned a lot about spending a weekend on a traveling bus. Had my own bunk - there are 12 on the bus. There is a living area in the back, and in the front is a living/kitchen area and a small bathroom. Six of us were along this weekend - the four quartet members, the piano player, and me. Usually the director's family comes along, but his children were in a play this weekend, which is why I rode along instead. After the recording session on Saturday, we drove to Terre Haute and had two services on Sunday at a church there. Then we went on to Cloverdale (didn't know there were so many hills, valleys, and curvy roads in Indiana) for an evening service. Left there at 9:30 p.m. and pulled into the director's house at 5:30 this morning.

Thanks so much, Ada, Jerry, and Heather, for taking the time to come meet us!
