<div>Hey everyone,</div><div><br></div><div>Hope it was a good session today. Sorry I had to miss it. First I was busy with one of my boy's Youth Symphony Concert, which I only got to partly attend because my other son got into a narly bike accident, so I spent much of 3:00-4:30 in Urgent Care. He's okay now, with stitches and road rash, poor guy. I probably won't see you at the next one, as I will be at the traditional music camp.</div><div>Therese</div><div><br></div>
