What Happened on the 4th

As I had the day off, I was delighted to accept an invitation to head over to Dave and Kathy Trott's place for a get-together/picnic lunch. They had invited several folks over, and we had a blast.

There was a men's group from West Coast Baptist College in Lancaster, California that stopped by for lunch, driving up from Draper, UT. They've been on the road since the first part of May, singing at different churches.

After a great lunch, we all sat around, talked, played volleyball, jumped on the trampoline, etc. As it was quite warm and my blood is still "Alaska thick" I opted for indoor activities in the wonderful atmosphere of an air conditioned house!

We had our Wednesday night meeting at church, featuring the group from West Coast. We had a great time listening to their singing and preaching. I shot a couple of video clips, more on that later...

After the service, their piano player played a few songs and I played along on the guitar. We had a lot of fun! Their group leader actually gave me one of their CD's for playing along! (Well, the case was actually broken, so it wasn't one they could sell...nonetheless, I got a free CD...in fact, I'm listening to it right now!)

Here are some pictures from today:
