Sue...

No prob on the rehearsal! I should have been more time
restrictive at the vendors and have gotten my business with
Clark finished before the last day too!

The South treated me to a mid 90s 95% humidity welcome. All my
reeds are soggy (I am having to move up to 4.5s now because the
3.5s and 4s are wet noodles from the humidity.) One nice thing
is that all my reeds have a better ring than before, so volume
is no longer a problem...maybe that's why there are more
marching bands in the south? LOL

Hope to see you in Atlanta in 2 years!
