Getting Closer...

I'm pretty excited that my recital is coming up so soon. One week from today. I'm also pretty excited that there are people coming out to see me! There is so much I want to show everyone about this place, from the stellar local brews, to Butchart Gardens, to the cool downtown stores and buildings. I doubt there is going to be enough time to do everything.

I've completed the majority of my transfer of CDs to digital format on my external drive. Sure went a hell of a lot quicker with a computer that actually functions! It is pretty cool to have basically any classical work that a person can think of at my fingertips, without having to go digging around to find the CD. Still lots of stuff missing to complete the collection, however...

I guess I don't have too much to say... I thought I did when I started typing, and then I realized that there was nothing but more trombone stuff going on in my head. I won't bore you all with those details. Hell, sometimes, I don't want to bore myself with those details.

Buchart isn't actually in season yet, is it?

Not quite, but there is always stuff to see. The Japanese gardens are always good.

Isn't there a part of Buchart Gardens that is in bloom? Other than the Japanese Gardens?

Bass `Bone said...

I'm not sure if the bulbs will be or not. That would be the first bloom there.

i looked it up and there is prelude garden inside that is in bloom and i think some of the bulbs outside. This is also the only time of year that they have the house set up when the Butcharts were still living there. I am thinking that I would like to go on Wednesday - the weathernetwork says that it will rain on Monday and Tuesday.

Hell, it rains all the time here. The house is very cool, and so is the garden they build in the tennis court!

M. Peeke-Vout said...

Wha? It rains in Victoria? WTF? What's the world coming to?

Good luck with the recital - I'm gonna watch the streaming thingy. You should feel special because I don't normally stay up that late on a weeknight these days but I'm making an exception! lol
