Catching up....

Well, I've been terribly remiss and am way behind in posting this trip. Frankly, I'm just feelin' worn out. I've no reason since we've only done two concerts so far but c'est la vie.
A couple days of driving got us safely from Little Portion to the Tampa area. Despite some difficulties (read Joe's post below) we had a great, well attended concert in Lutz. Joe & I managed to get a bit turned around on the journey back to the hotel but I still made it to the bus to see the second running of Battlestar Galactica on SciFi.
Special thanks and prayers go to Sacred Heart parish in Pinellas Park where Tom & I went to Mass Sunday. Not knowing that we were there the music ministry was using mostly Mass parts that Tom wrote. Tom was tickled. They also had their first LifeTeen Mass that evening so we wish them every blessing & success.
The second concert in St. Petersburg was as well or even better attended than the first. The crowd was truly responsive and the parish supportive. Volunteer help started to thin out during the load out though so we finished with a bit less help than we could of used.
Next concert is tomorrow here in Boca Raton. Hopefully I'll get some pictures to share. Please drop us a line and let us know you've seen the blog, the tour, or both.
