We are on a short but very unique adventure!  Emmett and I, with about 16 members of our Coastal California Chorale,  are joining voices in a 250 to  300 voice choir at the Kennedy Center on July 3, a Salute to our American Veterans!  We are backing up 2 great gospel singers,  Sandi Patty and Jimmy Fortune of the Statler Bros. 

6 is us flew in together today and others are joining us over the next 24 hours.   Those of us who came early are getting a VIP Tour of the Museum of the Bible tomorrow morning before our whole group gathers for a opening dinner and then a 2 hour rehearsal.  And this is just the beginning

Over the next 5 days, we will be singing a couple concerts at 2 memorials, praying and maybe singing in the capital rotunda,  visiting the Arlington National Cemetery, laying a wreath at the tomb of the unknown, and visiting a couple museums on our day off!!  Of course,  the Capital fourth and the fireworks are right at our doorstep,  if it isn’t too hot,  muggy,  or rainy too go… time will tell.  We can see them from the hotel,  if we are inclined to see them that way!    So watch for photos and videos in the upcoming days.

Our capital is impressive even from the air,  isn’t it?
