Guess I should mention the whole reason why I was in Hot Springs to begin with. Both performances were great, and were very well received. There were lots of
\nkids in attendance at each, and I knew we had a winner from their reactions. There is probably no sweeter sound on the planet than that of children
\nlaughing…and there was plenty of it.<\/p>\n
After the last show Saturday, we all went to the Brau Haus, which had given assurances the previous visit that they would be serving food when we got out of the
\nshow. Unfortunately, this guarantee didn’t seem to make it to the waitstaff, who insisted that we could only order appetizers. Luckily, I took out insurance in
\nthe form of asking Sarah to grab me a chicken quesadilla at Taco Bell. \ud83d\ude42 We stayed til about midnight:30, I sang my goodbye song, then we returned to the ASMS
\ndorm and packed, then played Fool til about 2. Woke up at 5:30 with the help of Janina’s coffee pot, loaded up my stuff and hit the road at 6. It’s almost
\nexactly 400 miles, so I had time enough to stop in Lufkin for an Egg McMuffin (and to read 40 more pages of The Goblet of Fire) and still get home in time for a
\nquick nap before rehearsal. All in all, a great experience, and I hope to repeat it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
