Day 107:  Wedding gig with Dad, Paul Merrill, and Tom Killian at Bully Hill Winery on Keuka Lake, NY.  Felt like coming home.  It’s not summer unless I’ve played a Finger Lakes wedding gig.  Beautiful!  Thanks, guys.

Too busy studying to post.  Also writing paper for Haydn class.  Performances counted on class days as presentations to class about: 1) The Rhetoric of Improvisation in Haydn’s Piano Trios, and 2) Classical Era ornamentation.  Yawn…

92:  Studied all day.  What a great day!

93:  Studying

94:  Studying

95:  Studying.  And kickball.

96:  Made a recording with Chris Ziemba and Rich Thompson.  Those guys are really great!  I think the music came out good, but I haven’t heard any of it yet.  Will post when I get some tracks.

97:  Watched the performance of…Harry Potter!

98:  Watched Jenine perform in a 5k race.  I’m really proud of her for running the whole time without stopping!  Also studied Quintillian and Greek speech-writing rhetoric.

99:  Studying and watching USA soccer.  Ok, so some of the things in this post are not actually performances.  I’m almost a third of the way through the year and failing miserably.  Got to pick it up.  At the very least, I’m keeping a psuedo-diary, which is something I’ve never done before.  Gotta keep pushing through!!
