What a beautiful drive it is to Ankeny middle school this morning. The sun is shining brightly and everything about the world seems to be green with specks of reds and yellows and oranges and blues poking out from the green.

Contest is over for saxophones and vocalists. All that we have to focus on right now are solos for end-of-the-year concerts and upcoming auditions for marching band and drum majors. All my students have been working harder than ever and it is so great to see all the tremendous results from their hard work. In a few weeks it will be time for the summer schedule which will last for about 2 1/2 months. I always enjoy teaching in the summer because I teach three full days on Mondays Tuesdays and Wednesdays and then have Thursdays and Fridays off.

Now it is time to go inside and work with saxophone students on marching band audition music.
