The Woodinville Jazz Ensemble performed at the Ballard Locks again this year and I’ve received some photos from Shawn Murphy, a world-class photographer who was there. First you see some of our trumpeters extraordinaire, Bruce, Gary, and Doug.
Next some saxes including me, Matt, and Molly. Matt and Molly are the heart and soul of the sax section, with impeccable timing and flair.
We also have a killer rhythm sections with Mark on sticks, Gene on guitar, and Justin on the bass.
All in all, it was a very nice venue, with a great audience, and the Seattle weather cooperating. Happy 4th of July everyone.

I love outdoors concerts! Yours looks like a lot of fun.
I can’t imagine being outside during such a storm, i think i would just crumple up in a little cave and probably die of fear…

Gandalfe,
Saw your comment at Daphne’s and stopped by to give you a sincere "THANK YOU" for your service to your country, and to shout a big "HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!" to you and Suzy!

Seattle weather is perfect today. Spent some time at the center and now have to decide where to watch the fireworks from tonight. I think if I walk just a few blocks up from my place on lower QA I should be able to see both the Fourth of JulIvar’s and Lake Union. Hope you have a good perch where you will be.
Blessed be,
PS I followed you from one of my favorite spaces (Carol in Chicago) just because you mentioned being in Seattle.
