Our family traveled to Arizona for part of our spring break...we spent day 1 in Sedona, and on day 2 we woke up early and headed north to see the Grand Canyon.
The last time I was there, I was 10 years old...

For spring break we decided to visit Arizona. It's an easy and cheap flight from Oregon, and we wanted to go somewhere warm and new. I traveled to Arizona when I was 10, but I don't remember much of that trip.
We flew into Phoenix and drove up to Sedona for the first 3 nights. Unfortunately, there was a cold front that came through and our one and only full day in Sedona was cold, cloudy and rainy. In the end, I think the unfavorable weather played to our advantage. We were able to find easy parking for a quick scramble up Cathedral Rock....when we came down there were at least 10 cars waiting for a parking spot!
What a week! We had 3 opportunities to play live music and each one was special and unique. I knew I missed the experience of playing for others, but I didn't realize how much until we started our first tune at our first gig...all the emotions came rushing in and I got quite teary. I am hopeful this summer will bring more opportunities for us to play our music for others.
It's spring! Our weather has cooled down a bit in the past couple days, but leaves are growing, flowers are blooming and buds are opening.
St. Patrick's Day has gotten busier and busier for us as a Celtic band. Last year we had two gigs on the weekend before the 17th, and then another two scheduled for the big day. BUT....on the 16th everything closed because of COVID.
And now it's been a whole year without live music. (there was the one gig we did in September, but other than that we've been out of commission).
Tonight we are playing LIVE at a pretty big venue and we are excited. Hopefully it's just the first of many liver performances this year.
